KYRON DRONES NEWS

Not practicing Drones (undisclosed) isn't practicing for Virginia Tech, Kolby Crawford of 247Sports reports.

Impact Drones was deemed questionable on Tuesday, and now his status has been throw further into question given that he was absent from the Hokies' practice on Wednesday. The quarterback still has a shot to play Saturday against Duke, but if he's unable to go, Collin Schlee should get his second start of the season.

Questionable for Saturday Head coach Brent Pry labeled Drones (undisclosed) questionable for Saturday's game versus Duke, Damien Sordelett of The Roanoke Times reports.

Impact Drones had a bye week to rest what has plagued him between Weeks 11 and 12, but it appears his status for Week 13 hasn't been solidified as of yet. The star quarterback's availability may not be solidified until the team takes the field for warmups Saturday, with Collin Schlee presumably set to start if Drones can't go.

Not dressed in practice Drones (undisclosed) wasn't dressed for Virginia Tech's practice on Tuesday, Kolby Crawford of 247Sports reports.

Impact Drones was taken out of last week's loss to Clemson after throwing a pick, but it now appears as though the gunslinger is dealing with an injury as well. His status will be worth monitoring all week, but if he's unable to go after the bye week, Colin Schlee should assume his role as the top gunslinger in Blacksburg.

Benched after interception Drones completed 9 of 20 passes for 115 yards and one interception during Saturday's 24-14 defeat versus Clemson. He also had 11 rushes for 13 yards.

Impact Drones and the Hokies' offense was stuck in the mud before a third quarter interception was the last straw and the quarterback was benched for Colin Schlee. Schlee didn't fare too much better, also throwing a pick. This was a tough showing for Drones, and just the second game all year he didn't account for a touchdown. There may be some quarterback controversy in Blacksburg this week.

Starting for Hokies Drones (foot) is starting for Virginia Tech against Clemson, Andy Bitter of Tech Sidelines reports.

Impact Drones was in full uniform and warming up ahead of the game, so this comes as little surprise. The quarterback's foot injury will cause him to miss just one game.

Impact Drones was able to practice fully during the week, so although his status will not officially be determined until after pre-game warmups, it seems he has a good chance to play. Drones missed last week's game with a foot injury and Collin Schlee took over the offense in his place.

Full practice participant Drones (foot) is a full practice participant for Virginia Tech on Wednesday, David Cunningham of Tech Sidelines reports.

Impact Drones missed last week against Syracuse and was deemed questionable for the Hokies' clash with Clemson on Tuesday. The fact that the quarterback is moving around with no limitations is a good sign, however, one that indicates he's likely in the questionable to probable range for Saturday. If he can't go, Colin Schlee should get the start once again.

NOVEMBER 6 • ROTOWIRE

Deemed questionable for Week 11 Drones (foot) is questionable for Virginia Tech's clash with Clemson in Week 11, David Cunningham of Tech Sideline reports.

Impact Drones didn't play last week, and Colin Schlee led the Hokies at quarterback in their narrow, overtime loss to Syracuse. Drones' status remains up in the air for a big-time showdown with Clemson. This fall, the quarterback has thrown for 1,447 yards, 10 touchdowns and five interceptions while rushing for 324 yards and six scores.

Won't play Saturday Drones (undisclosed) is sidelined for Saturday's game versus Syracuse, Damien Sordelett of The Roanoke Times reports.

Impact Drones took part in warmups as usual, but it appears an issue that popped up late last week will keep the start signal-caller out of commission for at least a contest. Collin Schlee will draw the start in his place.

Warming up vs. Orange Drones (undisclosed) is warming up ahead of the Hokies' clash with Syracuse, Andy Bitter of Tech Sidelines reports.

Impact There were notions that the starting quarterback could be limited, but Drones is warming up ahead early.

The dual threat gunslinger has thrown for 1,447 yards, 10 touchdowns and five interceptions while rushing for 324 yards and six scores.

Does enough vs. Yellow Jackets Drones completed 16 of 27 passes for 128 yards and one touchdown during Saturday's 21-6 victory versus Georgia Tech. He also had eight rushes for six yards with one touchdown.

Impact Drones didn't light up the stat sheet, but he didn't need to in a comfortable victory over Georgia Tech. He also protected the football after throwing a pick and losing a fumble the week prior. Drones won't blow you away statistically, but he's done enough to help Virginia Tech win three straight after the heartbreaking loss to Miami.

Impact Drones had a quiet day through the air, but he didn't need to rack up the passing numbers to lead Virginia Tech's offense to a 42-point performance. Drones' legs were deadly, as he scored twice on the ground while gaining 40 yards in that department. The quarterback has been effective for the Hokies, but he still has just one game of 200-plus passing yards to his name this fall. His weekly rushing production, however, adds plenty of upside to the gunslinger from a fantasy perspective.

OCTOBER 21 • ROTOWIRE

Three scores in blowout win Drones was 14-for-19 passing for 201 yards and two touchdowns during Saturday's 31-7 victory against Stanford. He also had eight rushes for 17 yards with one touchdown.

Impact Drones didn't need to do all that much in an easy win over struggling Stanford. He had his most efficient day as a passer this season, completing 73.7 percent of his passes. He also didn't turn the ball over for just the second game of the 2024 season. Drones also hit the 200-yard passing mark for the first time since Week 1. He hasn't necessarily poured on the stats this season, but the gunslinger has done enough to operate this offense fluently more often than not.

Not enough to upset Miami Drones completed 19 of 33 passes for 189 yards, two touchdowns and one interception during Friday's 38-34 defeat against Miami (FL). He also had nine rushes for 52 yards.

Impact Drones' day would've looked much better had his game-winning Hail Mary not been controversially overturned. Still, the quarterback did all he could to nearly upset the 'Canes, and put together a respectable stat-line in the process. Still, it was the fourth consecutive game Drones hasn't hit the 200-yard mark passing. If you're looking for big-time production through the air, look elsewhere.

SEPTEMBER 30 • ROTOWIRE

Poor day as a passer Drones completed 13 of 27 passes for 137 yards and one interception during Saturday's 26-23 loss against Rutgers. He also had nine rushes for 60 yards.

Impact Drones remains a highly effective mobile quarterback, but he struggled through the air against Rutgers' tough defense, completing a season-low 48 percent of his passes while throwing a pick. Drones hasn't put up big numbers in the passing game since the opener, and he's been uneven the past two weeks. The quarterback will look for a bounce-back performance against Miami (FL) on Friday night.

Impact Drones' passing numbers certainly weren't electrifying, but his legs helped carry the Hokies to a win over in-state rival Old Dominion. His 12 carries for 117 yards were the great equalizer, the element that pushed the Virginia Tech offense over the top against the Monarchs. Drones' passing has suffered since his 322-yard performance in Week 1, but he remains a solid option with the way he can dictate a game with his rushing ability.

Scores with arm and leg Drones was 14-for-21 passing for 130 yards and one touchdown during Saturday's 31-14 victory versus Marshall. He also had 15 rushes for 13 yards with one touchdown.

Impact Drones didn't dominate the Thundering Herd, but he did exactly what he needed to do in Virginia Tech's bounce-back win. It was a far cry from the 322 yards and two passing scores he posted in the opener, but the Hokies' didn't need their quarterback to do much in a rather comfortable win. Drones should have another good matchup next week against Old Dominion.
