Ward suffered the injury to his throwing shoulder in Houston's 33-23 win over Oklahoma last week, but Tom Herman said he doesn't believe the injury to be serious.

Blake, who was hired last month at Lamar University, resigned from North Carolina amid an NCAA investigation into his financial relationship with then-NFL agent Gary Wichard.
