Aidan Laughery Injury: GTD Saturday
Head coach Bret Bielema revealed that Laughery (undisclosed) practiced with the team on Thursday and will be a game-time decision fo Saturday's contest against Western Michigan, per Joey Wagner of 247Sports.com.
Laughery was previously a no-show against Duke last week and disappeared for most of the second half, so the news of his current ailment doesn't come as much of a surprise. The 5-foot-11 running back had a huge game in Illinois' season opener against Western Illinois and will be hoping to return to that form should he suit up against the Broncos. If he is unable to go, Kaden Feagin will likely step up to lead the way for the Fighting Illini as he did against the Blue Devils.
