Tim Weah Leads US Roster Amidst Setbacks

Tim Weah was chosen for the US roster for the CONCACAF Nations League quarterfinals against Jamaica but will miss the first match due to suspension. Injuries forced several players to withdraw, prompting changes in the squad. The US will face Jamaica in a two-leg series.

Winger Tim Weah, a notable selection for the US roster, will sit out the opening CONCACAF Nations League quarterfinal match against Jamaica due to suspension following his red card incident in June's Copa America against Panama.

Weah received a two-game suspension after a red card for striking Roderick Miller, contributing to the US's early elimination in the tournament, which resulted in a coaching change from Gregg Berhalter to Mauricio Pochettino.

Injuries and fitness issues prompted roster changes, with notable inclusions being Cade Cowell, Johnny Cardoso, Chris Richards, and Diego Kochen. As the team prepares for their Jamaica encounter, standout player Christian Pulisic leads with significant international experience.
