College Note - Miami Zion Nelson

Miami Herald

Jalen Rivers, who has played mostly guard at UM, again lined up as the first-team left tackle, while Chris Washington was the first-team right tackle. Left tackle Zion Nelson, who missed much of last season because of a knee injury, remains out for undisclosed medical reasons; Mario Cristobal has indicated he's optimistic that Nelson will be able to play this season. Rivers could end up starting at left tackle if Nelson doesn't win the job this summer, or if the Canes believe five-star freshmen tackles Samson Okunlola and Francis Mauigoa aren't ready for starting jobs. - Miami Herald
