Plays at tail end of spring
Rusk (knee) re-joined the Illini on the practice field late in spring camp, per 247Sports.com.
ANALYSIS
The tight end has been slowly working back from a knee injury that forced him to miss the entire 2024 season. He partook in the latter portion of spring practice with a non-contact jersey, so while he returned to the practice field, he's still not quite 100 percent heading into summer workouts.
