Niall Huggins Injury: Picks up injury

Huggins was forced off in Tuesday's 1-1 (6-5) penalty shootout against Huddersfield due to an apparent groin injury, according to manager Regis Le Bris, per Phil Smith of Sunderland Echo."Niall had an injury which is why he came off, he felt some discomfort in his groin."

Huggins looks to be heading to the sidelines for a bit of time after he suffered what has been deemed a groin injury. This will be something to monitor, but it is likely a minor loss, as he is a depth option and has yet to appear this season. He will likely miss around at least a week with the injury, probably seeing a bench spot once fit.
