Louisville’s offense is set to receive a timely boost as the Cardinals prepare for their road matchup against North Carolina.

Wide receiver Lawayne McCoy is expected to return after nearly a month on the sidelines, giving quarterback Lincoln Kienholz another important option in the passing game.

On3 national reporter Pete Nakos shared the development on X, reporting that McCoy will be back in action on Saturday.

Louisville WR LaWayne McCoy will return today after nearly a month, sources tell @On3.

"(McCoy) Has 25 catches for 513 yards and 4 TDs this season. Cardinals are at North Carolina."

McCoy last played against Syracuse on October 17. He caught five passes for 93 yards in Louisville's 34-26 victory.

Further testing revealed that the injury was more serious than initially believed. The wide receiver subsequently missed Louisville's games against Stanford and Georgia Tech.

Louisville head coach Jeff Brohm initially provided a cautious update about McCoy's recovery ahead of the Stanford game on Oct. 31.

"I don't think it requires surgery, but we have to get it healed. So the timetable is kind of unknown now."
