Sep 26 (Field Level Media) – Ole Miss running back Kewan Lacy is not ​expected to play on Saturday ‌at Florida due to a left shoulder injury, coach Pete Golding told ESPN.

The No. 4 Rebels (3-0, 1-0 SEC) and No. 21 ‌Gators (3-0, ​1-0) kick off ⁠at 3:30 p.m. ET ⁠in Gainesville, Fla.

“We still have another chapel session, so I’m not giving up yet,” Golding told ESPN.

Lacy ​was downgraded to doubtful on Friday’s Southeastern Conference injury report because ⁠of the injury ⁠sustained in last week’s victory ​against LSU. He rushed for 43 ​yards and a touchdown on nine ‌carries before leaving in the third quarter of the Rebels’ 32-24 defeat of the then-No. 7 Tigers.

A 2025 ⁠All-American and Doak Walker Award finalist, Lacy has 191 yards and four touchdowns on ⁠39 ‌carries this season. He rushed ⁠for 1,567 yards and ​24 ‌touchdowns in 15 games for ​Ole Miss ⁠last season.

With Lacy out of the lineup, sophomore JT Lindsey and Michigan State transfer Makhi Frazier are expected to split the carries against Florida.
