Mack Brown gives injury update on cornerback Lejond Cavazos

Posted Aug 19, 2023
UNC football coach Mack Brown delivered some (relatively) good news regarding cornerback Lejond Cavazos on Tuesday. Cavazos suffered a lower-body injury that required surgery this month, but Brown told reporters Tuesday that he’s expected to back within 4-6 weeks. That’s a more optimistic timeline than some in Chapel Hill initially feared. (Saturday Road)
