Virginia Tech and associate athletics director for sports medicine Mike Goforth provided a post-season Hokies football injury report.

Cornerback Kendall Fuller had surgery on 1/5/15 in Baltimore to repair a fracture in his left wrist, that he played with the entire season. (Emphasis is my own.) Kendall will be limited in the spring, but back full for summer camp. In 2014, Fuller was voted a second-team All-American by Walter Camp, FWAA, Fox Sports and USA Today, a third-team All-American by the Associated Press and Athlon, and got the nod from the ACC's media and coaches as first-Team All-ACC. Reminder: He accomplished all of that with broken wrist.

As mentioned yesterday, A.J. Hughes will have surgery on Wednesday to repair a slight disc herniation in his lower back that he played through during the season. He is expected to be back full for spring ball.

Offensive lineman Kyle Chung will have a scope on his left shoulder today by Dr. Tony McPherron at LewisGale Montgomery. He is questionable for spring ball.

Fullback Sam Rogers had surgery on 12/31/14 (Happy New Year!) to repair a radius fracture in his left elbow that he suffered in the Military Bowl. He will be full for the spring.

Tailback Juice Williams had surgery on 12/16/14 to repair a torn ACL in his right knee that he suffered at Duke. He is out for spring ball.

Tailback Joel Caleb had a scope for the meniscus in his left knee on 1/2/15 in Richmond. He is expected full for spring. (If there was going to be a running back to transfer this offseason, a logical guess would be the underutilized and occasional doghouse dweller Joel Caleb to explore his options. I am reading into things, but perhaps Caleb being listed is a positive sign that he will be back at Tech next fall.)

Offensive lineman Cody Rhodes is pending surgery for a torn ACL in his left knee. He will be out for the spring.

Virginia Tech is in the process of submitting paperwork to the ACC for medical hardship waivers on Kalvin Cline, Brandon Facyson, Desmond Frye and Luther Maddy.
