Kansas State running back Dylan Edwards will redshirt and miss the remainder of the season with an ankle injury, according to On3’s Pete Nakos. Edwards suffered a leg injury early this season in a 24-21 loss to Iowa State.
Edwards will finish the season with 205 yards and two touchdowns on 34 carries. Most of Edwards’ rushing yards came in Week 5 against the UCF Knights.
The junior running back only played four games this season, making him eligible to redshirt. This will allow him to have another year of eligibility; he’ll have two years of eligibility remaining. According to multiple reports, Edwards will enter the transfer portal.
Kansas State is 4-5 this season. The Wildcats will next take on Oklahoma State, which is coming off its bye.
This was Edwards’ second year at Kansas State after he spent his first year at Colorado. With Edwards not returning, leading rusher Joe Jackson and quarterback Avery Johnson are expected to carry the workload.
