Utah quarterback Cameron Rising is out indefinitely with a right leg injury, head coach Kyle Whittingham confirmed Monday.
The seventh-year senior sustained his latest injury when he was tackled awkwardly in the first quarter of Friday’s 27-19 loss at Arizona State. He remained in the game but appeared to have trouble planting his right leg.
Rising, 25, had just returned after missing three games with a hand injury suffered in a Sept. 7 win against Baylor.
Rising completed just 16 of 37 passes for 209 yards with no touchdowns and three interceptions against the Sun Devils. For the season, he has completed 51.5 percent of his passes for 555 yards with seven TDs and three picks in three games.
Rising was on the roster at Texas in 2018 before transferring to Utah in 2019. He missed all of 2023 with a knee injury.
Freshman signal-caller Isaac Wilson will make his fourth start of the season when Utah (4-2, 1-2 Big 12) hosts TCU (3-3, 1-2) on Saturday night.
Wilson has appeared in five games, completing 55.7 percent of his passes for 830 yards with six TDs and seven interceptions.
