Five-star Corner Canyon High School (Utah) wide receiver Jerome Myles is out against Lone Peak.

The top-ranked senior recruit in Utah and top-five high school football WR in the Class of 2025 left with a knee injury in the first quarter and was seen on crutches in the second quarter with ice on his right knee.

Myles has a top five of Georgia, Ohio State, Texas A&M, USC and Utah to play college football. He is scheduled to announce his college commitment on Oct. 30.

Corner Canyon is trailing Lone Peak 28-7 at halftime as penalties and the Lone Peak ground game have been killing the Chargers.

Corner Canyon has already beaten IMG Academy this season, so the Chargers aren't out of this game, but losing Myles long-term would hurt a lot more than one early-season loss.
