Micah Alejado Injury: Appears on media day

Alejado drew a large media-day crowd Wednesday after being named the preseason Mountain West Offensive Player of the Year, according to Christian Shimabaku of The Aloha State Daily.

The Hawaii quarterback's presence is a notable offseason development after he rested during spring ball while recovering from an ankle injury. This is a positive sign for Alejado's offseason standing heading into 2026. His media-day appearance suggests Fajardo remains central to Hawaii's plans at quarterback.
