Also, AJ Natter's knee is bothering him so he didn't practice. Walk-on Ross Dzuris got Natter's reps.

Pelini said Jordan Westerkamp hit his head on the turf during Monday’s practice, so the sophomore receiver will be held out of workouts through Thursday. It’s a three-day evaluation period. Standard procedure, Pelini said.

Westerkamp was back practicing today.

I'm really excited for this guy, southpaw quarterback and appears to be a good athlete, hope he can start in a few years.

Yup sounds like Taylor and even more so Imani played at a very high level today with Ameer and Newby out.
