MIAMI GARDENS — Miami cornerback Damari Brown appeared ready to play before the Hurricanes’ game against Wake Forest, but he did not take the field. Brown, who has been out with an injury since Week 1, warmed up and was dressed in full uniform before UM’s game against Wake Forest but was on the sideline in a hooded sweatshirt during the game. Brown, an American Heritage alum, got significant playing time as a true freshman in 2023 and was expected to play a large role this year before suffering an undisclosed injury against the Gators in the opener.
