T.J. Thorpe Returning in Limited Role

Posted Sep 16, 2014
Junior wide receiver T.J. Thorpe will return to No. 25 UNC’s lineup on Saturday for the first time since breaking his left foot for a third time six weeks ago. “I don’t know if I’ll be on the field taking a majority of the reps, but I know I’ll be out there with the guys,” Thorpe told reporters following Tuesday’s practice. “I will be dressed out. God willing, if this [ankle] stays up through the week, then I’ll be out there.” (Inside Carolina)
