Once again, the Boise State football team is dealing with a handful of injuries as the Broncos prepare to face New Mexico on Friday.
Wide receiver Octavius Evans, receiver Khalil Shakir, receiver John Hightower, safety Tyreque Jones, tight end Matt Pistone and defensive tackle Chase Hatada won’t play in Albuquerque, a Boise State official said.
Shakir and Jones are new additions to the injury report. Shakir, a true freshman, scored a go-ahead 49-yard touchdown last Friday in a 24-17 win over Fresno State. Jones has started five games this season but was replaced in the lineup by sophomore Jordan Happle last week.
