Redshirt freshman running back Camerun Peoples tore his right ACL and is out for the remainder of the football season. Peoples tore his ACL in App State’s season-opener win over East Tennessee State on Aug. 31.
“It breaks my heart to not be on the field this season, especially in this fashion,” Peoples wrote on Twitter. “But everyday I give my all to Appalachian and I will continue to do so in being a great teammate and App’s #1 fan on the sideline this year!”
Peoples sat out most of his freshman season, but played in three games and, under NCAA rules, was able to maintain his redshirt eligibility.
