BLACKSBURG – Head coach Frank Beamer and Associate Athletics Director for Sports Medicine Mike Goforth confirmed that junior cornerback Kendall Fuller underwent right knee surgery on Tuesday.

"Kendall was very determined to compete as long as he could with this injury,” Beamer said. “While we are all disappointed that he is sidelined for the remainder of the season, we know Kendall will approach his rehab with a positive attitude and will continue to contribute to our team with his knowledge and leadership.”

“Kendall courageously attempted to play the first three games of this season with a torn meniscus that occurred during preseason camp in August,” Goforth indicated. “After this past weekend’s game, it was decided that surgery would be the best option moving forward, and Kendall will miss the remainder of the 2015 football season. The procedure was performed Tuesday morning and Kendall is expected to have a full recovery.”
