John Ross is a deep threat on offense, averaging 21 yards per reception.

Speedy Washington wide receiver/defensive back John Ross III will miss the season after suffering a leg injury during spring practice.

Washington announced Ross' injury Thursday. Ross, a sophomore last fall, had minor knee surgery following the 2014 season but suffered a leg injury doing light work on the side during spring drills. The school did not specify the nature of Ross' injury.

The loss of Ross takes away possibly Washington's most dynamic playmaker.
