Purdue football has 2 likely season-ending injuries, player leave the team

WEST LAFAYETTE — Purdue football entered fall camp relatively unscathed on the injury front.

That's no longer the case.

Tight end Kylan Fox and defensive back Raderrion Daniels will likely miss the season with knee injuries, Boilermakers coach Barry Odom said Monday.

Odom also confirmed Marc Nave Jr., who transferred to Purdue from Kentucky prior to the 2025 season, is no longer with the team because he "decided to be done with football."

The 6-foot-4, 245-pound Fox, a junior transfer from Central Florida, was expected to have a role in the offense. Fox had 16 receptions for 137 yards and a touchdown playing in the Big 12 last season.

Daniels, a 6-1, 185-pound freshman cornerback, was rated a three-star prospect from Mississippi.
