DeaMonte Trayanum - Officially questionable Trayanum (hand) is officially listed as questionable on Kentucky's injury report Wednesday night.

Impact Trayanum may return, and he may not. Either way, the Wildcats aren't going to overplay their hand by letting Florida know just how healthy the tailback is on Wednesday night. His head coach Mark Stoops said earlier in the week, "We may see him." That lines up with this non-update Wednesday night. If Trayanum can't go, expect Demi Sumo-Karngbaye to lead the way in the backfield Saturday in Gainesville.

DeaMonte Trayanum - Could return Saturday Trayanum (hand) could return for Saturday's game against Florida, head coach Mark Stoops told Adam Luckett of Kentucky Sports Radio. "We may see him," he stated Monday.

Impact Trayanum suffered a setback in his injury recovery process earlier this month, but there's a chance he'll finally suit up for the Week 8 contest against the Gators. Trayanum has yet to play this season, but in his last healthy season in 2023, he recorded 85 carries for 373 yards and three touchdowns across 12 appearances.

Hardley Gilmore IV - Participates in Saturday game Gilmore (collarbone) participated in Kentucky's 20-13 loss Saturday against Vanderbilt.

Impact Now that Gilmore is healthy, his next objective will be to log receptions during Kentucky games. KU's quarterback Brock Vandagriff could use another option out wide, even though his passing has not been secure enough to assure his now-healthy wideout of targets.

OCTOBER 13 • ROTOWIRE

Brock Vandagriff - 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

Gavin Wimsatt - Five rushes in loss Wimsatt had five rushes for 25 yards during Saturday's 20-13 loss versus Vanderbilt.

Impact Wimsatt provides some dual-threat ability in contrast to starting quarterback Brock Vandagriff. However, he does not see enough action on a weekly basis to make much of a fantasy impact. Kentucky visits Florida next weekend.

OCTOBER 13 • ROTOWIRE

Demie Sumo-Karngbaye - Finds end zone in loss Sumo-Karngbaye had 12 rushes for 59 yards and one touchdown and caught 3 of 4 targets for 31 yards during Saturday's 20-13 loss versus Vanderbilt.

Impact Sumo-Karngbaye has scored three times in the last three games for Kentucky, though is averaging just 4.6 yards per tote in 2024. He has double-digit carries in each of the last five games for the Wildcats. He should continue to be heavily involved at Florida next weeked.

OCTOBER 13 • ROTOWIRE

Dane Key - Finds end zone in loss Key gathered in 8 of 11 targets for 83 yards and one touchdown during Saturday's 20-13 defeat versus Vanderbilt.

Impact Key has been the go-to playmaker for the Wildcats recently, reeling in 23 passes for 333 yards and two touchdowns over the last three outings. Key should continue to be the focal point of the Wildcat passing game at Florida next weekend.
