Channing Trotter’s chance to be in season opener increased by teammate’s injury

UNLV wide receiver Rodelin Anthony (concussion) returned to football practice today, but tailback C.J. Cox (hamstring) and offensive lineman Doug Zismann (concussion) sat out.

Cox’s absence possibly increases the chance of Channing Trotter starting the Sept. 5 season opener against Sacramento State at Sam Boyd Stadium. Coach Mike Sanford said a decision might come later this week.

Zismann is expected to return to practice Wednesday.
