Out for 2023 season
McNeely will miss the 2023 season after suffering a torn ACL in practice, Ryan Thorburn of the Casper Star-Tribune reports.
ANALYSIS
Things didn't sound particularly promising when it was revealed McNeely was headed for an MRI on his knee, and the fears have been confirmed. The Cowboys have taken two hits in the backfield before the start of the season and will also be without Harrison Waylee for the first few games. D.Q. James could be next in line for carries for Wyoming, but his 5-foot-7, 170-pound stature could mean Wyoming will employ more of a committee until Waylee returns.

Leaves practice with knee injury
McNeely left Wednesday's practice with a knee injury and will undergo an MRI, Alex Taylor of WyoSports reports.
ANALYSIS
McNeely is projected to be Wyoming's top running back in 2023, so news of an injury affecting him could be problematic for the Cowboys. He has improved in every season for them, finishing 2022 with 63 carries for a touchdown and 356 yards.

Listed as top running back
McNeely is listed as the Cowboys' top running back n the depth chart going into fall camp, according to 7220sports.com.
ANALYSIS
McNeely is listed ahead of Northern Illinois transfer Harrison Waylee (knee), who will sit out the 2023 Cowboys' first few games injured. There is a chance the latter could earn a starting role when he is healthy. For now, the honor will go to McNeely, who logged 63 rushes for 356 yards as the Cowboys' clear-cut No. 1 during their 2022 season.

Runs for 42 yards vs. Air Force
McNeely totaled 42 yards on seven carries Friday as Wyoming beat Air Force 17-14.
ANALYSIS
Titus Swen has been the star running back on Wyoming in 2022, but McNeely has done well as a secondary option for the Cowboys. He has yet to score a touchdown this season, but when Swen needs a break, McNeely has been able to make the most of his time on the field.

Solid as number two RB
McNeely ended Saturday's 33-10 win over the Bears with 14 carries for 48 yards.
ANALYSIS
McNeely has been playing behind the talented Titus Swen, but that does not mean his contributions have gone unrecognized. McNeely has totaled 74 yards through his first two games after having 13 yards in six games in 2021, and the work that he put in during the offseason is evident. Even when he is not leading the team in rushing yards, McNeely has been a great number two for Swen and creates a powerful offensive duo for Wyoming.

McNeely (undisclosed) will potentially be available this weekend, Josh Criswell of WyoSports reports.
ANALYSIS
