Miami wide receiver Malachi Toney is dealing with an ankle injury heading into a pivotal game against Notre Dame, according to Sporting News and Yahoo Sports. Toney, considered one of the Hurricanes' two Heisman Trophy contenders, is reportedly uncertain to play in the matchup.

The injury casts doubt over Miami's offensive plans for one of the biggest games of its season. Toney has been a key playmaker this year, putting up 73 catches for 1,027 receiving yards and 13 touchdowns, per Yahoo Sports.

Neither Miami's coaching staff nor Toney has confirmed a final decision on his availability, and reports indicate his status remains fluid in the days leading up to kickoff against Notre Dame.
