The injury bug is slowing things down for the Wisconsin Badgers’ spring practice.
Ten players weren’t taking part in the sixth practice and three of those ten are likely starters.
Head coach Paul Chryst says his players need the experience they’re getting right now – since almost half of the roster is going through spring football for the first time in their career.
Graham Mertz is the starting quarterback for the first time in this spring practice and Chryst says he is impressed with his approach.
Saturday was the team’s first open practice and the sixth overall.
