Army quarterback Bryson Daily will return for Army against North Texas on Saturday and will start for the No. 25 Cadets, sources told ESPN.
Daily, the engine of Army's potent offense, missed the team's win over Air Force last week with an undisclosed injury. Sources told ESPN he returned to practice this week for a walk-thru on Thursday and practiced in full for the first time on Friday before Army left for North Texas.
Army is 8-0 and off to its best start since 1996. Army checked in as the third-highest ranked team from outside a power conference in the College Football Playoff rankings, as it is positioned behind No. 12 Boise State and No. 21 Washington State . Army is in first place in the American Athletic Conference, as they are 6-0 in conference play and ahead of 5-0 Tulane.
According to sources, Daily has"looked like himself" since he returned to practice. But there's some concern, according to sources, about his ability to play a full game coming off a two-week stretch where he only took part in one practice and one walk-through., who started his first career game against Air Force, will end up getting snaps. Until late this week, he's taken all the snaps with Army's first-team offense the last two weeks.
Daily's return is crucial for Army as he leads the nation in both rushing touchdowns for a quarterback and rushing yards per game for a quarterback . Only Boise State'sPrior to the injury, he'd played two of the best games of his career, as he scored five rushing touchdowns and ran for 171 yards against East Carolina and had four rushing touchdowns and 136 yards against UAB.
