He has been more threatening on his feet, however, rushing for 473 yards and four touchdowns.
Larrier will be replaced with Jensen Jones, who came in against the Wyoming Cowboys following Larrier’s injury.
Who will be the Navy starting quarterback vs. Air Force?
The Navy Midshipmen are not without a quarterback situation of their own. During their win over Charlotte last weekend, starting quarterback Tai Lavatai got injured and was replaced with freshman Braxton Woodson. Woodson then threw a 69-yard touchdown pass, which solidified Navy’s win.
In the absence of Lavatai, Woodson might be called upon to stand in again in the Air Force vs. Navy game.
