Players who are out for the season are not included on the injury report. Arizona has stayed mostly healthy with defensive end Tre Smith the most significant loss for the 2025 season. The Thursday Player Availability Reporting update will be published by the Big XII at 8 PM Mountain Standard Time.
The updates can change later in the week. Groves-Killebrew was not in the initial Player Availability Reporting update posted last week for the Colorado game. Groves-Killebrew did not play versus Colorado. Arizona is mostly healthy for Kansas on the initial Player Availability Reporting update.
Kansas also appears to have its full roster of players on its two-deep depth chart after Gibbs sits out the first half. Gibbs is a key player on the Kansas defense. Expect Arizona offensive coordinator Seth Doege to try and target Gibbs' replacement during the first half.
