The other injury was to backup DB Omari Porter.  So we are down Green, Manley, Morris, and Porter.  Other than QB, I'd say our defensive backfield was already the weakest and thinnest position group on the team, and now it's just laughably thin. Maybe we have some WRs that played DB in high school. Trying to defend SMU with very inexperienced corners (with Wright at the nickel) and nobody to spell them is going to be an adventure.

Recall that we cut 4 DBs over the off-season because they were that much worse than what we currently have.

We have also been down S Che Ojarikre, who is out for the season, this whole time.

When a team suffers a large number of serious injuries, questions are sometimes raised about that team's physical trainer and his training strategy. Of course, it could be just bad luck, but maybe not. Anyone have a perspective on that?
