  James Madison safety Sam Kidd will undergo season-ending shoulder surgery after suffering an injury during the Marshall game on Saturday, head coach Curt Cignetti announced Tuesday afternoon. Kidd, a former walk-on, will have his third shoulder surgery since joining the Dukes and it will end his sixth season in Harrisonburg. "You hate to lose Sam Kidd," Cignetti said. "He just plays so hard, really physical, good player. I have so much respect for him. He came in as a walk-on and overcame some significant injuries early in his career to become the player that he became. It's a big loss." Kidd had appeared in all seven games this season for JMU, registering 31 total tackles with two tackles for a loss, a forced fumble, a fumble recovery, one quarterback hurry and four pass breakups. - Daily News-Record

  In just one week, James Madison had two defensive tackles leave the team and retire from the sport of football, leaving what was one of the deepest parts of the roster thin. First it was redshirt freshman Tyler Negron, a reserve nose guard that provided depth along the defensive front on Aug. 19. But earlier this week the Dukes' defensive line lost a bigger piece, redshirt senior Tony Thurston, who logged 45 tackles and nine tackles for a loss last fall, hung his cleats up.

JMU head coach Curt Cignetti said he was excited about the defensive line's depth entering fall camp and that both of the departures surprised him. "I thought we had a lot of depth, a lot of guys that could become players," Cignetti said. "It takes a big commitment and sacrifice and if your heart's not totally into it … it takes a special breed to play this game. That's a tough loss from a depth standpoint, but next man up." That next man up for the Dukes is a handful of interior linemen, including redshirt sophomore James Carpenter, redshirt sophomore Jordan Funk, Marshall transfer Jamare Edwards and Rutgers transfer Jamree Kromah, who was recruited to JMU as a defensive end. Though the Dukes have a quartet of interior defensive linemen ready to play against Middle Tennessee on Sept. 3, Cignetti said the depth at that spot is a concern. - Daily News-Record
