What we learned from Chris Petersen: Nick Harris’ health and Salvon Ahmed’s next step

Nick Harris is week-to-week.

Which could mean just about anything. It could mean that Washington’s 6-foot-1, 302-pound center will play in Saturday night’s Pac-12 opener against Cal. It could mean that the preseason Associated Press All-American will miss the overwhelming majority of his senior season. It could mean he’ll retire in mid-October to join Chris Petersen’s coaching staff, or embark on a second career as a competitive dancer.

The most realistic result, though, is that Harris will make his 30th UW start inside Husky Stadium on Saturday night. The Huskies’ senior leader suffered what looked like a lower-body injury in the first half of UW’s 47-14 victory over Eastern Washington last weekend.
