The Wisconsin Badgers (5-3, 3-2 Big Ten) continue their 2024 season on Saturday with a primetime showdown against the Iowa Hawkeyes (5-3, 3-2 Big Ten).
Wisconsin has released its final status report with less than two hours remaining before the 7:30 p.m. ET, 6:30 p.m. CT kickoff at Kinnick Stadium in Iowa City, Iowa.
The Badgers will again be without WR Tyrell Henry, amongst others in Week 10. Notably, interior linebackers Tackett Curtis and Jaheim Thomas were added to the injury report, both of whom are questionable to play. Bryson Green is also questionable for the second week in a row as he looks to return to the field for the first time since Oct. 5 versus Purdue.
Iowa, meanwhile, will be without quarterbacks Cade McNamara and Marco Lainez, while starting tight end Luke Lachey is questionable to play with an undisclosed injury. Brendan Sullivan will take over at QB, but if Lachey can’t go, that’s a significant loss for the Hawkeyes.

Wisconsin WR Bryson Green injury update
Green suffered a knee injury in Week 6 against Purdue and has yet to return to the field. He was considered a game-time decision in Week 9 against Penn State, but he was ultimately ruled out. If he’s unavailable again, C.J. Williams will once again see an expanded role at wideout.
Wisconsin LB Jaheim Thomas injury update
Thomas recorded nine total tackles (five solo) in the team’s 28-13 loss to Penn State in Week 9, but he appears to have potentially picked up an injury in the contest or during practice this week. With Tackett Curtis also questionable, the Badgers could be down to Jake Chaney and Christian Alliegro at interior linebacker versus the Hawkeyes.
Iowa TE Luke Lachey injury update
Lachey was a late add to the injury report for the Hawkeyes and it’s unclear what is ailing him. The tight end is a big part of Iowa’s success in both the passing and running games on offense and his absence would be a big blow for Kirk Ferentz and his squad.
