As if losing at home to North Dakota State was not enough of a rough way to start the 2014 season for Iowa state, Iowa State was dealt a bad hand again today. Head coach Paul Rhoades announced wide receiver Quenton Bundrage is out for the rest of the season due to a knee injury.
Bundrage went down with an injury on just the fourth play of the game on Saturday. An MRI revealed a tear in his ACL. For many players the rehab work is not completed until a year later, although sometimes players come back earlier. Whatever the case, this is a big loss for Iowa State. Rhodes said freshman Allen Lazard and D’Vario Montgomery will likely see more playing time in the offense in Bundrage’s absence.
Bundrage led the Cyclones in receiving in 2013 with 676 yards and nine touchdowns.
