Michigan State has been hampered by injuries all season, an issue that got even worse last week when receiver Felton Davis was lost for the season to a ruptured Achilles.
But on Saturday against Purdue, it appeared the Spartans were starting to get some guys back, though the status of quarterback Brian Lewerke remained unclear as he battles a shoulder injury.
Sophomore wide receiver Cody White was back in uniform after missing the previous three games with a broken hand while sophomore cornerback Josiah Scott was out for warmups for the first time all season. He hurt his knee early in preseason camp and just returned full-time to practice this week.
