Blue Devils linebacker Kelby Brown to have MRI after injuring left knee in practice
{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}Duke linebacker Kelby Brown will have an MRI after injuring his left knee during preseason camp.
Team spokesman Art Chase said in an email that the fifth-year senior was rushing the quarterback during Monday's scrimmage when he was hurt.
Brown entered his final season as the undisputed leader of a Duke defense that improved significantly last year during a surprise run to an Atlantic Coast Conference division championship. Brown was an all-ACC first-team pick and one of the league's top tacklers with 114 as Duke reached the ACC title game.
{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}Brown suffered torn anterior cruciate and medial collateral ligaments in his right knee late in the 2010 season, then redshirted the 2012 season after tearing his right ACL again.
