Texas Tech receivers Eric Ward and Austin Zouzalik will be held out of contact drills through out fall camp. The two have suffered concussions in the past. “Kind of like we did in the spring,” coach Tommy Tuberville said. “They’ll wrap up, but they won’t have any head contact. Players know not to block them if they’re on defense. If they’re receivers, to kind of lay off of them.

Interesting to see coaching staffs starting to use this strategy more and more because of the awareness on concussions. Kiddos to coach Tubs.
