Ole Miss will rely on Makhi Frazier and Shekai Mills-Knight after Kewan Lacy was ruled out with a shoulder injury, Pete Nakos reported.
- On Thursday, sources confirmed to ESPN that Ole Miss star running back Kewan Lacy will miss the remainder of the 2026 season due to a left shoulder injury.
- Lacy dislocated his shoulder during the Rebels' 34-27 loss to Texas on October 24 and has been unable to recover despite missing time earlier in the season.
- The junior finishes his abbreviated 2026 campaign with 388 rushing yards and five touchdowns on 78 carries, following a stellar previous season of 1,567 yards and 24 scores.
- With Lacy sidelined, Ole Miss will rely on running backs Makhi Frazier and Shekai Mills-Knight to maintain the offense as the two have combined for 530 yards this season.
- The 20-year-old running back must now decide whether to enter the 2027 NFL Draft or return for another collegiate season, as his status as a potential high draft pick remains uncertain.
