Senior running back Rodney Hammond got reinstated this week and has a chance to get on the field for the Panthers vs. the Tar Heels. Hammond was suspended prior to the start of the season, but will look to make his first appearance in the fifth game of 2024.
Redshirt sophomore defensive tackle Sean FitzSimmons made the trip for Pitt and will hope to get his first action of the season, after not playing in the first four games of 2024. Fellow redshirt sophomore defensive tackle Nick James did not make the trip, after starting the first four games of the season.
True freshmen to make the trip includes wide receiver Cameron Monteiro, defensive lineman Sincere Edwards, Francis Brewu and Jahsear Whittington, linebackers Jeremiah Marcelin and Davin Brewton and tight end Malachi Thomas.
Edwards and Thomas will likely play today, making it their fifth game of the season and allowing them to burn their redshirt.
