VIRGINIA TECH HOKIES NEWS

Jaylin Lane - Big day in win Lane hauled in 7 of 9 targets for 106 yards and one touchdown during Saturday's 37-17 victory versus Old Dominion.

Impact Lane had his biggest game of the season against Old Dominion. He finally had a true wide receiver one performance, topping 100 yards for the first time in 2024 as well as scoring his first touchdown. Lane has been an integral part of this offense all year, but that was finally reflected on the stat sheet as well.

Bhayshul Tuten - Tops 100 yards again Tuten compiled 21 carries for 115 yards and two touchdowns and gathered in their only target for negative one yard during Saturday's 37-17 win over Old Dominion.

Impact Tuten topped 100 yards rushing for the second straight week. He's the clear top back in this backfield, as fellow tailbacks Jeremiah Coney and Malachi Thomas combined for just nine carries behind him. Tuten has also now scored a touchdown in every contest and has four on the season. It was the quietest receiving day for the running back on the season, but his rushing output made his fantasy performance more than viable. He'll look to continue his excellent start to the season against Rutgers in Week 4.

Kyron Drones - Uneven by air, dominant by ground Drones was 15-for-26 passing for 176 yards, one touchdown and one interception during Saturday's 37-17 win against Old Dominion. He also had 12 rushes for 117 yards with one touchd...

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.

Nick Gallo - Out Saturday Gallo (knee) didn't play Saturday against Old Dominion.

Impact Gallo was listed as doubtful leading up to the contest before ultimately missing a third straight game to open the season. Gallo, who had 30 receptions for 256 yards last year, will look to make his 2024 debut against Rutgers in Week 4.

Bhayshul Tuten - Ready to go Saturday Tuten (undisclosed) is dressed and will play in Saturday's game against Old Dominion, Andy Bitter of Tech Sidelines reports.

Impact Tuten was expected to play and log his regular workload Saturday, so this isn't surprising. The running back is coming off a 120-yard, one-touchdown performance in the Week 2 win over Marshall on Saturday and should carry the Hokies' rushing attack once again.

Nick Gallo - Misses Wednesday practice Gallo (knee) didn't practice on Wednesday ahead of Virginia Tech's clash with Old Dominion, Andy Bitter of Tech Sidelines reports.

Impact Gallo has yet to play this season, and it's looking increasingly unlikely he'll manage to suit up against Old Dominion. If he indeed misses Week 3, Benji Gosnell will once again be the unquestioned top tight end in Blacksburg.

Bhayshul Tuten - Observed in non-contact jersey Tuten (undisclosed) was observed wearing a blue non-contact jersey in Virginia Tech's Wednesday practice, per Damien Sordelett of The Roanoke Times.

Impact Tuten reportedly moved around well in running back drills, and the non-contact designation appeared to be more precautionary. The halfback left the Hokies' Week 1 clash with Vanderbilt early, but returned in Week 2 to compile 120 yards and a score on the ground. He appears to be fine heading into Virginia Tech's matchup with Old Dominion, but it's worth monitoring the running back as Saturday draws nearer.

Da'Quan Felton - Hits pay dirt in Week 2 Felton caught 2 of 4 targets for 14 yards and one touchdown during Saturday's 31-14 win over Marshall.

Impact Felton once again only caught two passes, but he turned one of those into a touchdown against the Thundering Herd. He won't be a high volume receiver in this offense, but if quarterback Kyron Drones keeps looking his way - the wideout has nine targets through two games - he'll continue to get the chance to make plays for the Hokies.

Impact Lane also hauled in four catches in the opener against Vanderbilt. He's amassed 11 targets through two games, which is a good sign that he'll continue to be heavily involved in this passing attack.

Impact Gosnell was only targeted twice on the Hokies win over Marshall. Last week, he managed to put up 72 yards, but only saw four targets in the opener. Gosnell can be a big-play wideout, but he's not seeing a significant amount of the work in Virginia Tech's offense through two weeks of the season. Still, his 54 yards paced the team's receivers.

Impact Thomas played second-fiddle to Bhayshul Tuten during Virginia Tech's comfortable win over Marshall.

He may be in line for a similar workload next week against Old Dominion.

Impact Tuten was the Hokies' workhorse back in their win over Marshall. After only rushing for 24 yards in the opener, the tailback paced Virginia Tech's backfield and scored his second touchdown in as many games. He also now has 10 receptions through two games, as the Hokies like to use him as a receiver. Tuten will look to build on this strong performance next week against Old Dominion in what should be another favorable matchup.

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.
