Ole Miss loses junior DB Montrell Custis for the season
The Ole Miss Rebels got thoroughly outclassed by the Alabama Crimson Tide on Saturday night, losing 62-7 to the No. 1 team in the country.
Now, the news is getting even worse, as it turns out an already-thin secondary will be without a key player.
Per a report from Clarion-Ledger reporter Maddie Lee, DB Montrell Custis tore his ACL and will miss the rest of the 2018 season:
DB Montrell Custis will miss the rest of the season with a torn ACL, an Ole Miss spokesperson confirmed.
I'll have a story up soon.

After serving as a reserve in 2016 and 2017, Custis had 10 tackles (one for a loss) and four passes defensed so far this season.
Now, he’ll have to endure a long rehab process and try to come back even stronger as a senior next fall.
