BYU will be without the team's two best wide receivers when the No. 21 Cougars host No. 9 Baylor on Saturday night, sources told ESPN.
Junior Puka Nacua and senior Gunner Romney are expected to miss the game. BYU coach Kalani Sitake had said earlier in the week that they would be game-time decisions. Romney and Nacua accounted for 60% of BYU's returning receiving yards, according to ESPN Stats & Info data.
Nacua, who is considered a dynamic NFL prospect, sprained his right ankle and wore a boot during BYU's blowout win at South Florida last week.
