Appalachian State receiver CoCo Hillary injured his knee during practice Tuesday night and is likely out for the season.
Hillary, a junior, was injured in a non-contact drill. Doctors have done tests on his knee and a final determination Hillary's his status will be done later Wednesday.
Hillary is second on the team in receptions with 37 catches for 514 yards and four touchdowns. He caught six passes for 83 yards and a 21-yard touchdown in the Mountaineers' 52-27 win over Furman last Saturday.
Hillary has also returned 21 kickoffs for 522 yards this year.
