QB Brad Kaaya won't travel to Duke; Malik Rosier to start

The Canes will have to turn to backup QB Malik Rosier for this week's game.

Late on Thursday night, Miami Herald writer Susan Miller Degnan reported that Brad Kaaya will not travel this week to Duke.

With Kaaya not traveling, thus out for the game, the offense is now in the hands of Malik Rosier.

Rosier, a 3-star recruit who also plays baseball, has an interesting skilset, but has only seen limited game action. When compared to Kaaya, Rosier is the far better athlete, possessing much more mobility and escapability. And, with an pourous OL that has struggled in both pass protection and run blocking this year, Rosier will likely have to use that mobility on Saturday night.
