On KFAN (100.3-FM), Claeys said Leidner was checked when he came out after that series.
"I know that there's a [medical] spotter in the booth, white hats," Claeys said in his press conference. "All of the officials have the authority to stop the game, if they notice anything. Nobody on our sidelines, so he ended up having the symptoms after the game. Even after I talked to him as a team and that, I guess, after he went over and sat down."
Rhoda is a junior who has played only sparingly throughout his career.
"I talked to Rhoda this morning," wide receiver Drew Wolitarsky said. "I told him, 'Hey, it’s on us this week.' So we’re going to get together, watch film, get him prepared. He’s excited. I saw the big smile on his face. Obviously we’re going to miss Mitch out there, but he’ll still be at practice, coaching Rhoda up, getting with him as well."
Pirsig out 2-3 weeks
Claeys also said right tackle Jonah Pirsig has a high ankle sprain and will likely miss two to three weeks. Tight end Brandon Lingen and safety Antoine Winfield have been cleared to practice.
The Gophers also list Cody Poock as out for the Maryland game. It's worth noting that the Gophers listed Rashad Still and Tai'yon Devers as out at this time last week, and both of them played against Iowa.
