Mississippi State starting quarterback Blake Shapen will miss the remainder of the 2024 season with a shoulder injury suffered in Saturday's 45-28 loss to Florida, Bulldogs coach Jeff Lebby said in a statement on Saturday night.
"We're all hurting for Blake after this unfortunate news," Lebby said. "Blake is the ultimate competitor and teammate and an unquestioned leader in our program. I know he will work incredibly hard to come back stronger than ever, and he will continue to serve as a team leader from the sidelines. We will support Blake every step of the way during his recovery process and explore all options to help him seek a medical hardship waiver to regain his lost year of eligibility."
