But quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick had re-injured his broken hand during the loss to the Big Green and, stuck on the sideline, could only watch in dismay as the Crimson offense disintegrated. Injuries took out wide receivers Rodney Byrnes and James Harvey in the first quarter and left backup QB...
Last April, when spring practices rolled around, a casual observer might have noticed surprisingly few familiar faces in the Crimson wide receiver corps. Gone was James Harvey, shifted over to defense to shore up a weakened Harvard secondary. Gone was Rodney Byrnes, ineligible to play to due academic reasons.

In fact, he was probably way down at the bottom, below established threats like quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick, wide receiver Rodney Byrnes, an ominous weather forecast and the possibility of running out of Gatorade.
