Junior hybrid Ben Lewis is out for Syracuse’s game against Pittsburgh with an upper-body injury, per SU’s weekly injury report released Thursday night.

This season he’s caught 13 passes for 129 yards and a touchdown to go along with 12 rushing yards on five carries. He, along with freshman Dontae Strickland, helped fill in when starting hybrid Ervin Philips got injured in the first half in the Orange’s season-opener against Rhode Island.

Also listed on the injury report was junior tight end Kendall Moore, who is doubtful with an upper-body injury. Redshirt freshman safety Rodney Williams, who was doubtful last week, was upgraded to questionable with a lower-body injury. Freshman safety Daivon Ellison is also questionable with a lower-body injury.

SU (3-3, 1-1 Atlantic Coast) kicks off against No. 25 Pitt (5-1, 3-0) at noon on ESPNU on Saturday. The Orange is looking to snap its three-game losing streak after starting 3-0.
