  Ryan Silverfield's first home game as Memphis head coach will be a challenge against an Arkansas State team on Saturday whose offense is just as potent as the Tigers. However, the Tigers now have to prepare without their most dynamic playmaker as All-American running back Kenneth Gainwell decided Sunday to opt out of the season. Silverfield did not address Gainwell specifically Monday and added that he'd only discuss players who opted out once their paperwork was signed or if they made the decision public.. He also said he stands behind any player who decided not to play this season.

"I always talk to them about the different situations but for health and safety reasons, or whatever they may choose to be opting out. I will support them and I think that's the right thing to do," Silverfield said. Gainwell's father, Curtis Sr., told The Commercial Appeal Sunday that his son decided to opt out following the death of an uncle due to COVID-19. Gainwell Sr. added the family has lost four relatives to the virus. "He decided that he didn't want take any chances with the coronavirus going on. You don't want to to get out there and get sick and bring it to us, his brother or his teammates," Gainwell Sr. said. - Memphis Commercial Appeal
