Gets near 100 yards vs. Minnesota Sorenson had six catches for 97 yards and a touchdown against Minnesota on Saturday.
Impact After a two-catch season opener, Sorenson rebounded nicely in an easier matchup. Things will be even easier next week against LIU, with only a potential blowout to hold him back.
SEPTEMBER 11, 2021 • ROTOWIRE
Tops 60 yards vs. Minnesota Coldiron had four receptios for 67 yards on Saturday against Minnesota.
Impact Coldiron appears to have seized the No. 1 tight end for the Miami, at least for a game. His role is worth watching going forward.
SEPTEMBER 11, 2021 • ROTOWIRE
Catches touchdown vs. Minnesota Hippenhammer had two catches for 43 yards and a touchdown against Minnesota on Saturday.
Impact Hippenhammer has 107 yards on five catches through two games. A soft matchup against LIU next week may bring some big play opportunities.
SEPTEMBER 11, 2021 • ROTOWIRE
Runs for TD vs. Minnesota Mayer completed two of three passes for 36 yards, while adding seven rushing yards and a touchdown, against Minnesota on Saturday.
Impact After starting the season opener, Mayer gave way to a healthy Brett Gabbert but sparked the RedHawks' offense some when he got in. Next week against LIU should bring more snaps for him.
SEPTEMBER 11, 2021 • ROTOWIRE
Throws two TD vs. Minnesota Gabbert went 14-for-28 for 201 yards with two touchdowns and an interception, along with a team-high 27 rushing yards, on Saturday against Minnesota.
Impact Gabbert was spelled by AJ Mayer at times, but he started and is such going forward even if Mayer continues to be sprinkled in. A soft matchup against LIU is coming next week.
SEPTEMBER 11, 2021 • ROTOWIRE
Starting Week 2 Gabbert (thumb) will start Saturday's game against Minnesota, Ryan Burns of 247Sports.com reports.
Impact Gabbert missed the opener due to injury but appears to be ready to give it a go in Week 2 and should be the starter moving forward. In two games last season, Gabbert completed 65.7 percent of his passes for 384 yards and a 4:0 TD:INT ratio.
SEPTEMBER 11, 2021 • ROTOWIRE
Injured twice during fall camp Gabbert (head/thumb) injured his knee during fall camp then hit his thumb on a helmet when he returned to practice, according to AP writer Mark Schmetzer.
Impact Gabbert was in uniform and available for Saturday's season opener against Cincinnati, but since he had hardly practiced AJ Mayer got the start. Gabbert can be tentatively expected to start next week against Minnesota.
SEPTEMBER 4, 2021 • ROTOWIRE
Gets seven carries vs. Cincinnati Afari had seven carries for 22 yards against Cincinnati on Saturday.
Impact Afari got some action in his collegiate debut. Miami of Ohio's backfield may welcome Jaylon Bester and/or Tyre Shelton into the fold next week against Minnesota, which would leave everyone else in background roles.
SEPTEMBER 4, 2021 • ROTOWIRE
Scores TD vs. Cincinnati Tracy had eight carries for 37 yards and a touchdown against Cincinnati on Saturday.
Impact Tracy scored the RedHawks' only offensive touchdown in the game. The statuses of Jaylon Bester and Tyre Shelton are unclear, but if one or both is in action next week against Minnesota Tracy's role is likely to be minimal.
SEPTEMBER 4, 2021 • ROTOWIRE
Catches two passes vs. Cincinnati Sorenson had two receptions for 32 yards on Saturday against Cincinnati.
Impact On day the RedHawks scored one offensive touchdown and completed nine passes, Sorenson didn't get much done. Next week against Minnesota is lined up to be a little easier.
SEPTEMBER 4, 2021 • ROTOWIRE
Struggles vs. Cincinnati Mayer went 9-for-28 for 109 yards, along with 12 rushing yards, against Cincinnati on Saturday.
Impact Mayer surprisingly got the start under center over Brett Gabbert, and predictably struggled against a good opponent. Unless he's injured and that's to be unveiled this coming week, Gabbert should get the start next week against Minnesota.
SEPTEMBER 4, 2021 • ROTOWIRE
Surprise starter for Redhawks Mayer is starting Saturday's opener against Cincinnati, Justin Williams of The Athletic reports.
Impact While Mayer and Brett Gabbert were reportedly in a "1A and 1B" situation under center, it appears Mayer will be given the first look under center when it was expected Gabbert would. It's still quite possible the two will split snaps under center.
SEPTEMBER 4, 2021 • ROTOWIRE
QB-1B for the RedHawks? While Brett Gabbert is the likely starter over Mayer, the RedHawks have "more of a 1A and 1B" situation at quarterback according to Lukas Nelson of The Miami Student.
Impact Gabbert and Mayer both saw action last season, but Gabbert also missed time with a concussion. Gabbert is lined up for a breakout season in 2021, with Mayer as the capable backup who can step in if needed.
AUGUST 28, 2021 • ROTOWIRE
Healthy heading into season Homer (undisclosed) is back after missing all of last season with an injury and is expected to carry the load at tight end, Lukas Nelson of The Miami Student reports.
Impact The injury Homer was dealing with last year was never specified but it cost him the entire 2020 season. He's entering his sixth season of college football and figures to be involved in the passing game once again after combining for 26 receptions for 357 yards and five touchdowns over the 2018 and 2019 seasons.
AUGUST 27, 2021 • ROTOWIRE
Back after injury last season Shelton (undisclosed) is ready to go for the 2021 season, SB Nation reports.
Impact Shelton missed the 2020 season due to an undisclosed injury. He averaged 5.4 yards per carry as a freshman and will hope to step right back into a prominent backfield role in 2021.
JULY 20, 2021 • ROTOWIRE
Ready to return from heel injury Bester (heel) should be good to go for fall camp, SB Nation reports.
Impact Bester dealt with a heel injury all of 2020 that caused him to not see the field. He should be fully good to go in 2021 and he will hope to find a role in the backfield during fall camp.
