Illinois football will face Rutgers in a Big Ten matchup this Saturday, with the Illini in fairly good health for this late-season game. Coach Bret Bielema provided updates on the team’s injured players, with receiver Malik Elzy potentially returning after missing the previous game. Linebacker Dylan Rosiek is out for the season, but reinforcements include freshman Demetrius John and junior college transfer Daniel Brown. Brown, who has yet to play for Illinois, could bring a new dynamic to the defense. The Illini are looking to add to their 7-3 record before heading to Piscataway, New Jersey, to take on 6-4 Rutgers. The game will be broadcast on Peacock at 11 a.m. Central Time. Both teams are looking to secure a win in their second-to-last regular-season matchup.
