Marlon Lucky left Saturday morning’s practice early, and team physicians will check for a possible concussion, NU coach Bill Callahan said.
Meanwhile, backup I-back Cody Glenn watched in street clothes because of a hamstring injury.
“Hopefully he’ll be back in a couple days,” Callahan said of Glenn, who has been bothered by a right foot injury since November and practiced Friday with his right calf in a wrap.
Lucky was injured during a scrimmage part of Nebraska’s practice.
Behind Lucky and Glenn are sophomore Major Culbert, a converted safety, and true freshmen Quentin Castille, Roy Helu and Marcus Mendoza.
The 6-foot-1, 255-pound Castille has draw favorable comments from several teammates. Asked about Castille’s weight, Callahan said, “He’s a big back. He’s athletic enough to carry that weight. It’s not an issue where he weighs 280 and has to drop 30 or 40 pounds. His body fat is such that he doesn’t have to lose a ton of weight.”
In other injury news, guard Andy Christensen (hamstring) and wide receiver Todd Peterson (shoulder) returned to practice. Wide receiver Chris Brooks (hamstring) remained sidelined, and safety Bryan Wilson left Saturday morning’s practice with an apparent foot injury. Wilson's injury didn't appear serious.
Oh yes, and Trevor Robinson watched practice Saturday morning with his father, leaving the stadium just before practice ended.
