Defensive back Myles Slusher appears close to returning from an injury he sustained during Colorado’s season opener against TCU. As revealed by Reach The People Media, the Arkansas transfer was an active participant in the Buffs’ practice on Sunday.
Following that Week 1 game, head coach Deion Sanders revealed that Slusher was “banged up” and may require minor surgery.
Slusher started at nickel against TCU and recorded six total tackles, one of which came on a fourth-down play in the fourth quarter.
Unfortunately for the Buffs, Reach The People Media also released footage of right tackle Savion Washington wearing a walking boot. He was taken out of Saturday’s loss to USC with an apparent leg injury and replaced by Reggie Young.

It’s currently unknown whether Slusher will return to action this weekend at Arizona State, but seeing him back at practice is a great sign for Colorado’s beaten-up secondary.
