Miami star WR Malachi Toney’s injury status updated before Notre Dame

Notre Dame football plays the Miami Hurricanes this weekend, as they could be without their star wide receiver this weekend.

An update on Wednesday afternoon revealed that Miami's star wide receiver, Malachi Toney, might potentially miss the upcoming game against Notre Dame this weekend. Later, at the beginning of the evening, Yahoo Sports reporter Ross Dellenger shared on social media that his sources indicate the potential All-American will be out for 4-6 weeks, with a chance of returning before the College Football Playoff.

While the confirmation is still pending, this news would be a blessing for Notre Dame. Although it's unfortunate when a player gets injured, any assistance the Irish can receive to defeat Miami is highly appreciated, particularly given their current status with the CFP committee. A significant victory against the No. 1 team in the country, even without Toney's presence, would meet their requirements.

It would have been a fantastic opportunity to watch Notre Dame's corner Leonard Moore defend against Toney, but that seems unlikely. Sources suggest Malachi Toney will be sidelined for 4-6 weeks for recovery, placing his potential return in time for the playoffs.
