Tyrod Taylor injury update

From head athletic trainer Mike Goforth:

"Tyrod Taylor has been placed in a short-leg cast and will be in the cast until Saturday. At that time, he will be re-evaluated. We will not be able to provide any update on him until next weekend when the cast is taken off. At this time, he is questionable for the Boston College game on Thursday, Oct. 25."

Taylor suffered a high right ankle sprain in the second quarter of Virginia Tech's 43-14 win at Duke yesterday. He was immediately taken for X-Rays, which were negative, and missed the remainder of the game. The true freshman from Hampton, Va., has started the last five games for the Hokies.
