Arizona defensive tackle Jarra Anderson announced on Instagram Tuesday morning that he will miss the remainder of the season and medically redshirt after he suffered a leg injury in training camp.
Anderson revealed he suffered a stress fracture in his shin during training camp.
"I have been contemplating on my return for this, but after heavy consideration with my family, I have decided to medically redshirt for my sophomore year to come back stronger and at full health for the upcoming season," said Anderson.
Arizona landed former Memphis defensive tackle Jarra Anderson through the transfer portal.
The 6-2, 277-pound Katy, Texas native played one season at Memphis, before entering the transfer portal. Anderson recorded 10 tackles, two stops for loss and 1.5 sacks in 11 games at Memphis. He was named to Pro Football Focus' All-Freshman Team in 2023.
Arizona (3-1) faces Texas Tech (4-1) for its Big 12 home opener at Arizona Stadium on Saturday at 8 p.m. on Fox.
