Could Conway High graduate Peyton Derrick, a redshirt freshman, be quarterbacking Appalachian State on Saturday at Brooks Stadium?
Sophomore starting quarterback Zac Thomas hit his head on the turf on a tackle in the first quarter of ASU’s loss Thursday at Georgia Southern and did not return to the game, and he has been in concussion protocol since.
According to Ethan Joyce with the Winston-Salem Journal, Thomas did not participate in practice Wednesday but watched it on the field. Mountaineers head coach Scott Satterfield said Thomas is considered day to day, and he doesn’t expect a decision on his availability to be made until late in the week.
