Will Johnson injury update: Michigan star DB questionable for 2nd half vs. Illinois
Michigan star cornerback Will Johnson is questionable for the remainder of the game against Illinois on Saturday, according to CBS sideline reporter Jenny Dell. Johnson apparently has a left toe injury.
ESPN’s Adam Rittenberg reported that Johnson exited the halftime tunnel with his helmet on and appearing to be available to play, but with a noticeable limp.
Dell delivered the news on the broadcast as the second half began and Michigan got the ball, trailing, 13-7.
Michigan’s defense had already been playing mostly without Johnson against Illinois. The defensive back, after appearing in the game early, was seen on the sideline with his helmet on for most of the first half.
It was reported on the broadcast early on that Johnson had gone to the injury tent and replaced an orthotic in his cleats, with Dell saying his ankle was the area to monitor. From that point, Johnson did not appear to re-enter the game at any point.
Dell also reported out of halftime that Michigan tight end Marlin Klein would be out for the remainder of the game. He had one catch for five yards prior to getting injured.
