QB Grier to Skip West Virginia’s Bowl Game

West Virginia quarterback Will Grier won’t play for the 15th-ranked Mountaineers in the Camping World Bowl against No. 17 Syracuse, instead focusing on preparation for the NFL draft. Grier announced his decision Saturday in a statement released by West Virginia. Grier joins about a dozen high-profile college players who already have announced they will skip their team’s bowl games. Grier has accepted the invite to play in the Reese’s Senior Bowl on Jan. 26 in Mobile, Alabama.
