Will miss rest of season
Orji will miss the rest of the season with a Grade 3 LCL injury and a torn hamstring, Dominic Lavoie of the Las Vegas Review-Journal reports.
ANALYSIS
Orji saw action in the Week 2 matchup against UCLA, but he won't be returning to the gridiron this season. His absence wasn't expected to have a lot of fantasy implications since Anthony Colandrea will remain the starter, but Cameron Friel is expected to handle the backup duties under center from now on.
