Michigan Punter Blake O’Neil Injured?

There had been a report from Rivals’ Chris Balas that Michigan may not only be without Jabrill Peppers, but also another contributor for the January 1st Citrus Bowl against Florida. Looks as though that player could be punter Blake O’Neil. According to Max Bultman of the Michigan Daily, O’Neil was spotted wearing a brace at practice on Tuesday.

Saw Blake O'Neill with a brace on his right knee at Michigan practice today. A Michigan spokesman could not confirm an injury.

It’s unclear who would take over the punting duties if O’Neil is unable to play. Kenny Allen, who punted in high school, could potentially pull double duty and do the kicking and punting.
