JONESBORO, Ark. (AP) - Arkansas State's home football game against Central Arkansas has been pushed back from Saturday to Oct. 10.

Arkansas State made the announcement in a news release Tuesday, saying the team cannot assemble a full two-deep depth chart at a specific position group due to player unavailability. The statement did not say if the postponement was COVID-19 related, but the program said the "health and safety of our student-athletes will always come first."

"We are obviously disappointed for the student-athletes participating from both schools, as well as both coaching staffs and fan bases," Arkansas State athletic director Terry Mohajir said.
