Max Johnson, UNC Quarterback, Done for Season After Suffering Broken Rib at Minnesota

Johnson Injured in First Quarter

North Carolina Tar Heels quarterback Max Johnson suffered a broken rib in the first quarter of Saturday's game against the Minnesota Golden Gophers, according to head coach Mack Brown.

Brown said Johnson is out for the season and will have surgery on Monday.

Dramayé Toney to Start

Sophomore quarterback Dramayé Toney will start in Johnson's place.

Toney has appeared in four games this season, completing 18 of 30 passes for 179 yards and a touchdown.

Impact on Season

Johnson's injury is a major blow to the Tar Heels, who are 3-0 this season and ranked No. 13 in the Associated Press poll.

Johnson has been a key part of the Tar Heels' success this season, passing for 756 yards and seven touchdowns.

The Tar Heels will now have to rely on Toney, who has limited starting experience.

What's Next?

The Tar Heels will host the Virginia Tech Hokies next Saturday.

The Hokies are 2-1 this season, and they are coming off a 27-10 win over the Duke Blue Devils.

The Tar Heels will be looking to bounce back from their loss to the Golden Gophers and improve to 4-0 on the season.
