Jaydn Ott was back at practice today after missing Saturday's game. Justin Wilcox says the expectation, again, is that he will play when the team heads up to Seattle.
That is currently not sounding like the case for defensive lineman Ethan Saunders, who Wilcox says is "week to week" with the injury that kept him out of the game against Idaho.
Starting nickel Matthew Littlejohn is expected back as well. At this point Wilcox says the expectation is he will play against the Huskies.
One interesting note from today's media availability is that the staff is not set on Sam Jackson V as its starting quarterback. The "or" has been moved back up the depth chart between Jackson and Ben Finley, and that wasn't a mistake. Wilcox and Jake Spavital expressed today that they still need to see more consistency from the position to settle on one guy over the other, and both coaches left open the possibility of playing both this weekend.
