Kevin Jennings, the standout quarterback for the SMU Mustangs, is expected to participate in the upcoming season opener against the Florida State Seminoles. This comes after he suffered a finger injury earlier this month when it was caught in a locker room door during fall camp.
Head coach Rhett Lashlee expressed optimism about Jennings' recovery, noting that the redshirt senior has started throwing again and is experiencing no pain. Lashlee mentioned that Jennings will have a complete two weeks to prepare for the game, with the goal of being fully ready by kickoff.
The injury was not deemed serious, and Jennings' return is crucial for SMU's prospects this season. Last year, he recorded impressive statistics, including 3,641 passing yards and 26 touchdowns, although he also led the ACC with 13 interceptions, indicating areas for improvement as the new season approaches.
