WVU QB1 in Trouble?! Mike Hawkins Jr. Injury Raises Questions!

Mike Hawkins Jr. has been spotted in a green no-contact jersey at WVU practice — so what exactly is going on with the Mountaineers’ quarterback? We break down what we’re hearing about a potential toe issue, why the green jersey matters, and whether missed practice reps this close to the season could give Scotty Fox a major opportunity to swing West Virginia’s QB battle. Plus, we go deep into WVU’s defensive line with full player breakdowns on Darius Wiley, Yendor Mack and Cam Mallory. We look at their size, production, development, body transformations, strengths, weaknesses and what each could bring to Rich Rodriguez’s Mountaineers in 2026. Is Hawkins’ situation something WVU fans should actually be worried about? And could West Virginia have some young monsters developing in the trenches?
