The latest injury is to Petras’ right arm — his throwing arm — and it kept him out the remainder of the Aggies’ game against the Aztecs.

The injury has also made his status for Utah State’s season finale against Colorado State an unknown right now.
“Yeah don’t know yet,” Utah State interim head coach Nate Dreilng said on Monday. “We will know more in the next 24 hours. Hurt his throwing arm. Waiting to get all of the reports back on that.”
If Petras is unable to go Friday, his collegiate career — which began back in 2018 — will officially come to an end.
The one-time three-star recruit out of California spent seven seasons at Iowa before transferring to Utah State last winter.
In his single season in Logan, Petras has thrown for 2,315 yards, 17 touchdowns and 11 interceptions.
Statistically, this season has been by far the best of his career, with him setting new career bests in completion percentage, passing yards and passing touchdowns.
If Petras is unable to play, he will be replaced by Bryson Barnes.
Much like he did early in the season against Robert Morris, Barnes filled in admirably in Petras’ absence over the weekend, leading USU to victory over San Diego State.
