Indiana announced four players who will miss the 2024 season on their pregame availability report Saturday afternoon.
Offensive lineman Nick Kidwell was previously reported. Here are all four players out for the season:
- Nick Kidwell – OL
- Josh Philostin – DB
- Andrew DePaepe – DE
- Vince Fiacable – OL
Kidwell is a seventh-year guard who was expected to start. Fiacable might have been a contender to see snaps on the interior of the line in Kidwell’s absence.
Philostin is a true freshman who likely would not have a seen a major role in 2024. DePaepe transferred in from Michigan State during the offseason.
Three additional players are dealing with non-season-ending injuries and will miss the opener against FIU:
- E.J. Williams – WR
- JoJo Johnson – CB
- Brody Kosin – TE
Williams and Johnson are both expected to have roles when healthy. Kosin is a true freshman.
