Brock Vandagriff News, Rumors, Updates - Kentucky Wildcats

Tosses two touchdowns in win Vandagriff was 12-for-19 passing for 183 yards, two touchdowns and one interception during Saturday's 48-6 victory over Murray State.

Impact Vandagriff shook off the injury bug to toss multiple touchdowns for just the second time in 2024. It has been a rough season overall for the Georgia transfer, as this was the fifth-straight game he failed to pass for even 200 yards. He also has an active four-game streak of tossing at least one interception. This contest was a nice reprieve for the Wildcats, but disaster could be lurking at Texas next weekend.

Starting for Kentucky Vandagriff (undisclosed) is starting for the Wildcats against Murray State, per 247Sports.com.

Impact Vandagriff was deemed probable, so it's ultimately not a surprise that he's starting under center for Kentucky. The quarterback won't end up missing time while dealing with his undisclosed ailment.

Expected to start Saturday Vandagriff (undisclosed) is expected to start for Kentucky against Murray State, Bleed Blue Network reports.

Impact Vandagriff left Kentucky's last game against Tennessee early after taking a big hit, but the quarterback had a bye week to recuperate. Now, his head coach Mark Stoops expects him to be available for the Wildcats' buy game against Murray State. If he can't go, Rutgers transfer Gavin Wimsatt figures to take his place.

5 DAYS AGO • ROTOWIRE

Early exit Saturday Vandagriff (undisclosed) was unable to return to the game against the Vols after taking a hit on a play, Chris Beasmore of ABC36 reports.

Impact Vandagriff was forced to exit the game early due to an injury thus giving way for backup quarterback Gavin Wimsatt to see work under center. Prior to his exit, the junior quarterback completed 10 of 17 passes for 123 yards, one touchdown and one interception. More news regarding the severity off the injury should surface in the upcoming days.

NOVEMBER 2 • ROTOWIRE

Slated to start Saturday Vandagriff was observed warming up with the starter ahead of Saturday's game against the Volunteers, Aaron Gershon of 247Sports reports.

Impact There was controversy as to who would be starting under center during this matchup after Vandagriff was benched for Gavin Wimsatt during last week's contest. It appears as though the team will give the junior quarterback another shot but could find himself on thin ice and could be replaced should he have another rough start.

Starting role in jeopardy Vandagriff's grip on Kentucky's starting quarterback job is in jeopardy after he was benched following a rough performance in the loss to Auburn, Aaron Gershon of 247Sports reports...

Impact Vandagriff tossed for 120 yards and an interception while completing 9-of-17 passes against the Tigers. He was benched for Gavin Wimsatt, who was even worse (3-for-10 passing, 34 yards and a pick). Still, Wildcats' offensive coordinator Bush Hamdan wouldn't commit to a staring quarterback when asked on Monday.

OCTOBER 28 • ROTOWIRE

Benched in dismal loss Vandagriff was 9-for-17 passing for 120 yards and one interception during Saturday's 24-10 defeat to Auburn.

Impact Vandagriff failed to throw for 175 yards for the third-straight contest and was ultimately replaced by Gavin Wimsatt. While the latter was downright dreadful passing the ball, completing just 3-of-10 passes for 34 yards and a pick, he does provide an added rushing element that Kentucky may wish to use moving forward. Neither quarterback is a recommended play at Tennessee next weekend.

OCTOBER 28 • ROTOWIRE

Mediocre at best in loss Vandagriff completed 12 of 26 passes for 165 yards, one touchdown and two interceptions during Saturday's 48-20 loss to Florida. He also had eight rushes for 33 yards.

Impact On a positive note, Vandagriff has at least one touchdown pass in three-straight outings. On the downside, he has yet to throw for even 250 yards in a single game in 2024, and has been held under 200 yards passing in five of seven contests. A clash of subpar offenses will take place next weekend when the Wildcats host the Auburn Tigers.

OCTOBER 21 • ROTOWIRE

Mediocre in loss Vandagriff completed 15 of 25 passes for 158 yards and one touchdown during Saturday's 20-13 defeat to Vanderbilt. He also had nine rushes for 37 yards.

Impact Vandagriff has just five passing touchdowns this season, and has failed to throw for over 250 yards in any game in 2024. Vandagriff remains an underwhelming option at Florida next weekend.

OCTOBER 13 • ROTOWIRE

Good to go Saturday Vandagriff (undisclosed) is not on the injury report ahead of Saturday's matchup with Vanderbilt.

Impact Vandariff was dealing with an apparent injury this week, though his status for Saturday's game never really appeared to be in doubt. The junior's completed 59.8 percent of his passes for 793 yards, four touchdowns and two interceptions this season.

OCTOBER 12 • ROTOWIRE

Probable for Week 7 Vandragriff is listed probable for Saturday's game against Vanderbilt.

Impact Given no previous injury has been disclosed, Vandagriff should not be in danger of missing this matchup. The junior quarterback has completed over 67% of his passes for 480 yards and one touchdown across his last two appearances.

OCTOBER 9 • ROTOWIRE

Career-high in upset win Vandagriff completed 18 of 28 passes for 243 yards and one touchdown during Saturday's 20-17 victory versus Mississippi. He also had 17 rushes for three yards.

Impact The 243 passing yards set a career-high for Vandagriff, who also found the end zone for the first time in four contests. Vandagriff appears to be hitting his stride as the Kentucky starter, and should find more success in two weeks against Vandy.

SEPTEMBER 29 • ROTOWIRE

Pilots victory Vandagriff completed 17 of 24 passes for 237 yards during Saturday's 41-6 win versus Ohio. He also had seven rushes for 21 yards.

Impact Vandagriff was not asked to do much in the thrashing of the Bobcats, as the Wildcats scored four times on the ground, as well as an additional touchdown on defense. The script will be flipped next weekend at Ole Miss, though, and Vandagriff will need to toss some touchdowns if the Wildcats want to keep pace with the high-octane Rebels offense. Of note, Vandagriff has not scored a touchdown in three consecutive games.

SEPTEMBER 22 • ROTOWIRE

Nearly leads mammoth upset Vandagriff completed 14 of 27 passes for 114 yards during Saturday's 13-12 defeat to Georgia. He also had 13 rushes for 26 yards.

Impact Though the numbers appear pedestrian, the Georgia transfer surprisingly kept the Wildcats in the game during the narrow, low scoring loss. Vandagriff should put up better numbers with a step down in competition next weekend against Ohio.

SEPTEMBER 15 • ROTOWIRE

Ready to roll Saturday Vandagriff (undisclosed) isn't listed on the injury report for Saturday's game versus Georgia.

Impact Vandagriff was listed as probable on the injury report leading up to game day, so things appear to have gone as planned. Vandagriff will assume his usual spot under center in what figures to be a tough matchup versus Georgia.

Listed as probable Saturday Vandagriff (undisclosed) is listed as probable for Saturday's game versus Georgia, Seth Emerson of The Athletic reports.

Impact It's unclear what Vandagriff is dealing with, but it's likely not serious enough to keep him off the field versus No. 1 Georgia. However, him going into that game with an injury -- depending on what it is -- is not ideal for him and the Wildcats.

Disastrous performance in ugly loss Vandagriff completed 3 of 10 passes for 30 yards and one interception during Saturday's 31-6 loss against South Carolina.

Impact Yes, you read that stat line correctly. The starting quarterback for the Wildcats could get absolutely nothing going versus the Gamecocks. The Georgia transfer will face his former squad next weekend, and if possible, unfortunately it could get even uglier for Vandagriff and company.
