  "account": "Ole Miss football player Kewan Lacy's injury status has worsened ahead of Saturday's SEC game against Florida. Once listed as questionable, Lacy was downgraded to doubtful on Friday due to a shoulder injury sustained during their Week 3 victory over LSU. Lacy, who transferred to Ole Miss from Missouri last year, rushed for 191 yards and 39 carries in the team's first three games. Coach Pete Golding downplayed the severity of Lacy's injury, stating it's not as bad as initially thought and that he doesn't require surgery. However, Lacy has been restricted from contact practice, and Ole Miss will evaluate his condition pregame. If he's unable to play, starting running back JT Lindsay could see increased playing time. Lacy's availability will be a key factor heading into Saturday's 3:30 p.m. ET matchup against Florida at Ben Hill Griffin Stadium.",
