Offensive line coach Tom Brattan confirmed this evening that left tackle Bruce Campbell with miss the Terrapin football team’s  home opener Saturday against James Madison because of the turf toe injury he suffered at Cal.

“Right now he is definitely out for this week,” Brattan said. “We’ll wait and see what happens. It might be one week; it might be longer than that. It’s not an injury I think that you can rush. It can be a lingering injury, and that’s the issue.”

Paul Pinegar will move from right tackle to start in Campbell’s place, and redshirt freshman R.J. Dill will get his first career start at right tackle.

The line gave up six sacks in the Terps’ 52-13 loss against the Golden Bears.
