Michigan coach Jim Harbaugh is hopeful junior running back Chris Evans can play this week at Northwestern.
But he won't be taking any chances.
Evans tweaked a leg muscle late in a win over SMU two weeks ago and after getting work in practice prior to the Nebraska game, was unable to play during the team's 56-10 win over the Cornhuskers.
Moving forward, Harbaugh plans to be careful.
