Noah Taylor, North Carolina, Player News
|
Injuries are starting to decimate North Carolina, particularly on the defensive line where on Monday the school announced edge rusher Noah Taylor, arguably the team's best pass rusher, and defensive end Des Evans will miss the rest of the season. Add in nose tackle Ray Vohasek, who was declared out for the season a week ago, and the Tar Heels have lost almost their entire starting front four on defense. The bad news spread to offense too, as running back Caleb Hood will also be out for the rest of the s eason with an upper body injury. Hood was injured in the first quarter of Carolina's 42-24 win over Pitt on Saturday. He had emerged as the starter and gained 250 yards on 43 carries this season.Taylor was also injured in the first quarter against Pitt. On Monday, he had his right knee in a brace and needed crutches to walk. Taylor started every game this season at the Tar Heels' 'Jack' position, which is essentially an edge rusher. He led the team with 3.5 sacks and ranked eighth in tackles with 28. It was Taylor who initiated the tackle on App State's two-point conversion to preserve the win for Carolina. "We've got to thank him for all he's done," Brown said. "He's a tremendous leader. He's one of the reasons that our defense has improved so much." - Raleigh News Observer

Even with two stars departing, UVa likes the players who may slide into starting roles this season. Two obvious projected starters are senior Noah Taylor and junior Nick Jackson. Taylor, an outside linebacker, dealt with a back injury last season that ha mpered his ability. He still finished with 44 tackles, including 8.5 tackles for loss, in nine games. The NFL prospect feels healthy as the team begins spring practices. "I feel a lot better, and I've just been waiting to get to this point where I'm star ting to feel a lot better just so I can go out there and perform the way that I know I can and the coaches know I can," Taylor said. "I've definitely gotten a lot better, and I'm very excited to see the improvement." With Taylor healthy outside, Jackson fills a role inside. He's a physical presence, leading Virginia with 105 tackles in 2021. Jackson earned third team All-ACC honors last fall. - Charlottesville Daily Progress
