The Arizona Wildcats’ all-time rushing leader, Ka’Deem Carey, underwent wrist surgery Tuesday, and will be out for roughly six weeks.
Carey opened preseason as the No. 4 running back on the unofficial depth chart for the Chicago Bears, fighting an uphill battle to make the 53-man roster.
But Carey was a pleasant surprise throughout preseason, contributing on offense and special teams. He has been praised for his high-motor and blocking for much of the offseason.
Carey carried the ball 10 times for 38 yards and picked up three first downs.
