Yates ready to shoulder UNC's QB load

Posted Aug 2, 2008

T.J. Yates was happy to be back on a football field Friday, even if it was just for practice.

That’s when North Carolina’s sophomore quarterback will throw a football for the first time with pads on since undergoing surgery on his right shoulder last December. (Fayetteville Observer)
