  The Virginia football team's roster has suffered a major blow this spring, losing two potential starters for at least most of the fall season. Head coach Bronco Mendenhall announced Monday that sophomore wide receiver Lavel Davis Jr. and junior outside linebacker Chico Bennett Jr. have suffered ACL injuries. "That's always the risk of spring practice," Mendenhall said. The earliest return for the two impact players is November. UVa's head coach said those are the only two major injuries suffered this spring.

Mendenhall added that Davis' injury occurred when the receiver became tangled up with a defensive back during a practice session. Bennett's injury came in a non-contact setting. Neither injury occurred during a full-contact period, but Mendenhall wouldn't change anything about how the Cavaliers handled their practice routine. "The only way to really avoid that is not practice in the spring," Mendenhall said of the significant injuries. Davis was expected to be a starter at wide receiver for UVa after a tremendous first season. The 6-foot-7 target caught 20 passes for 515 yards and five touchdowns as a freshman. - Charlottesville Daily Progress
