Louisville WR Caullin Lacy is opting out of the remainder of the 2024 season

Louisville wide receiver Caullin Lacy, who suffered a collarbone injury after transferring from South Alabama, is opting out of the remainder of the 2024 season, a team spokesman told ESPN.

Lacy ranked 5th nationally in both receiving yards (91) and receiving yards (1,316) for South Alabama last season. He suffered a broken collarbone in a preseason scrimmage and didn't make his Louisville debut until September 28 at Notre Dame, where he caught five balls for 71 yards.

Lacy appeared in four games and had 15 receptions for 179 yards and a touchdown, as well as a 100-yard kick return touchdown against Miami. The senior ranked third on the team in both receptions and receptions.

He continued to practice with Louisville this week but decided to opt out to retain his final year of eligibility. The 5-foot-10, 190-pound Lacy could return to Louisville in 2025.

He has 223 career receptions for 2,697 yards and 13 touchdowns, as well as 580 kick return yards, 453 punt return yards and 151 rushing yards.

Louisville (4-3) next plays at Boston College on Friday.
