Xavier Brown Injury: Out vs. Tar Heels

Brown (foot) won't be available Saturday against North Carolina, per Virginia writer Mike Barber.

Brown was helped off the field after getting banged up in the win over Washington State, and appeared unable to put any weight on his left foot as he hobbled off the field. Thus, it's rather unsurprising that the tailback, who has 241 rushing yards, 36 receiving yards and two total touchdowns this season, has been ruled out so early in the week. J'Mari Taylor and Noah Vaughn should handle the majority of the workload in the Cavaliers' backfield.
