Navy Prepares For VMI Without Quarterback Reynolds

ANNAPOLIS, Md. (AP) -- Navy could be without injured quarterback Keenan Reynolds in Saturday's game against Virginia Military Institute.

Given the way VMI has been playing this season, it might not matter much.

Reynolds has knee and shoulder injuries and did not practice earlier this week. Coach Ken Niumatalolo would not announce his starting quarterback for Saturday, saying he would wait to evaluate the progress of Reynolds.

If Reynolds can't go, sophomore Tago Smith will run the offense in Navy's bid to end a three-game skid.

Starting for Reynolds earlier this season, Smith accounted for four touchdowns in a win over Texas State.

VMI is a Football Championship Subdivision program coming off a 55-7 loss to Chattanooga. The Keydets are 1-5 and allowing 43.2 points and 507.8 yards per game.
