Indiana quarterback Michael Penix Jr. will miss the rest of this season with a torn anterior cruciate ligament.
Coach Tom Allen made the announcement Monday.
The junior was injured during the third quarter of Saturday’s victory over Maryland.
Jack Tuttle, a redshirt sophomore who started his career at Utah, will replace Penix.
It’s the third consecutive season Penix has had a season-ending injury. His freshman season also ended with a torn ACL in the same knee and Allen confirmed this injury was to the same knee.
