Broc Thompson - Likely to miss Week 4 Head coach Jeff Brohm said Thompson (knee) is probably doubtful for Saturday's game against Florida Atlantic, Mike Carmin of Lafayette Journal & Courier reports.

Impact Thompson injured his knee during the team's season opener against Penn State and has since missed Purdue's last two contests. The senior wide receiver failed to travel with the team for their game against Syracuse, indicating that his knee still has some recovering to do. If Thompson is sidelined once again, expect the Boilermakers to continue leaning heavily on fellow WR Charlie Jones, while TJ Sheffield, Deion Burks and Tyrone Tracy should all be in line for increased production.

Payne Durham - Notches first two scores of season Durham caught all but one of his 10 targets for 83 yards and two touchdowns during Saturday's 32-29 loss to Syracuse.

Impact Durham registered far and away his most productive outing of the 2022 season during the Boilermakers last-minute loss to the Orange. The 6-foot-5, 255-pound tight end hauled in both of his receiving scores during the fourth quarter of Sunday's loss, including a 12-yard catch to put Purdue up by four points with less than a minute remaining. As a result, Durham finished as his team's second-leading receiver behind Charlie Jones (11 receptions, 14 targets, 188 yards) as wideout Broc Thompson (knee) failed to make the trip out to Syracuse. The big receiving option will likely once again serve as the No. 2 target for quarterback Aidan O'Connell should Thompson continue to remain out next Saturday against Florida Atlantic.

Charlie Jones - Prolific in losing effort Jones recorded 11 receptions (14 targets) for 188 yards and one touchdown during Saturday's 32-29 loss to Syracuse.

Impact Jones continued to build on his early rapport with quarterback Aidan O'Connell, as he once again paced Purdue's receiving corps in both targets and yards in this losing effort Saturday. The Boilermakers' signal-caller especially locked in on the Iowa transfer in crunch time down the stretch against Syracuse, including a 55-yard touchdown reception followed by another 51-yard catch on the team's subsequent offensive series in the fourth quarter, which ended in a missed field goal. Jones' clearly sits atop Purdue's receiving corps with 32 receptions on 43 targets through the first three games of the season, and he figures to continue this prolific start during the team's game against Florida Atlantic next Saturday.

Aidan O'Connell - Productive in close loss O'Connell went 39-of-55 passing for 424 yards and a 3:1 TD:INT ratio during Saturday's 32-29 loss to Syracuse. He also added one seven-yard rush.

Impact O'Connell registered his all-around most productive start of the season, tossing for over 400 yards for the fourth time over his last eight games dating back to last year. The senior signal-caller made his first crucial mistake of the 2022 campaign as he tried to spin out of a sack midway through the fourth quarter, throwing an interception that was returned for a touchdown by defensive lineman Caleb Okechukwu to put Syracuse up 25-15. O'Connell did follow this up with touchdown passes to wide receiver Charlie Jones (11 receptions, 14 targets, 188 yards) and tight end Payne Durham over the team's next three offensive drives, putting his team up by four points with less than one minute remaining Saturday. The 6-foot-3 passer will look to lead his team back into the win column when Purdue takes on Florida Atlantic next Saturday.

SEPTEMBER 18, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Devin Mockobee - Scores TD in elevated role Mockobee recorded 22 yards and one touchdown over eight carries and caught his lone target for seven yards during Saturday's 32-29 loss to Syracuse.

Impact Mockobee split carries with junior rusher Dylan Downing (10 rushes, 22 yards) as No. 1 running back King Doerue sat out with a calf injury during the Boilermakers' narrow loss Saturday. The redshirt sophomore did manage to notch Purdue's lone rushing score against the Orange, running in a 15-yard touchdown with less than one minute remaining in the first quarter. Mockobee didn't make much of an impact outside of this rushing touchdown, and he will likely revert back to a minimal reserve role should Doerue eventually return at some point this season.

Broc Thompson - Doesn't make trip Thompson (knee) didn't travel for Saturday's game against Syracuse, Tom Dienhart of GoldandBlack.com reports.

Dylan Downing - Moves into starting role Downing is in line to start at running back for Purdue on Saturday, Mike Carmin of Lafayette Journal & Courier reports.

Impact King Doerue is sidelined on Saturday so Downing is set to take over. Purdue spreads its carries around so Kobe Lewis and Devin Mockobee could also see work against the Orange.

Broc Thompson - Not spotted in warmups Thompson (knee) hasn't appeared in warmups ahead of Saturday's game against Syracuse, Tom Dienhart of GoldandBlack.com reports.

Impact Coach Jeff Brohm labeled Thompson doubtful earlier in the week, so it's not a big surprise that he's in line to miss another contest. Charlie Jones is still the clear leader of the wide receiver unit, with Tyrone Tracy, TJ Sheffield, Mershawn Rice and Deion Burks all potentially part of the mix.
