FAYETTEVILLE — Arkansas running back Juan Day responded well to contact last week, but isn't expected to play this week against Auburn.
Day, who tore his ACL in March, still has a ways to go before he is game-ready, running backs coach Jemal Singleton said.
"He's a work in progress and has to get to where mentally we can trust him on the field and do some things ball security-wise and protection-wise," Singleton said. "But he's definitely coming along health-wise."
Day has not played in a game since September 2013 during his senior season at North Little Rock High School.
