Injury-plagued KU running back finally ready for return

LAWRENCE — For Kansas senior running back Taylor Cox, the time has finally come.

This Saturday, it will be two years and 26 days since Cox last suited up and took the field at Memorial Stadium. Cox’s last two seasons ended early due to injury.

In 2013, Cox played in the first two games before suffering a season-ending injury. In 2014, Cox saw his season cut short once again when he tore his Achilles in a non-contact drill during fall camp.

Fast forward to Week 5 of the 2015 season, and it is finally time for the 25-year-old to make his return.
