Offensive coordinator Eric Kiesau said coaches were evaluating all their options Sunday night and will come up with plans for multiple scenarios, but he didn`t have all the answers just yet. Kiesau said wide receivers Kyle Cefalo and Scotty McKnight might be the best options as emergency quarterbacks.
