Red Raiders Defense Lacks Key Players | Texas Tech Red Raiders Football News

Texas Tech’s defense hits the ground running with a major blow: three key players, including two starters, are sidelined for the season opener. Safety Brenden Jordan, a standout last year with 59 tackles and an interception, is out for the first two games due to a non-football issue. Starting linebacker Trey White, a transfer from San Diego State, is week-to-week after a knee injury and was expected to be a pass-rush force. Freshman LaDamion Guyton, a top recruit, also sits out the opener—though his issue isn’t serious. Facing Abilene Christian, a relatively easy matchup, the Red Raiders might manage despite the early absences, but fans are disappointed to miss out on these talents right away. Hope remains that Jordan and White return soon, and Guyton gets his college career back on track. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
