Health highlights Herd concerns

Marshall hasn’t suffered “the big one” on the injury front, but nagging physical ailments are mounting. Ten of 11 players who sat out Monday’s practices were back Tuesday, but their action was limited. Most concerning is the offensive line, where the starting unit has not participated in live action together for a single snap. Snyder hopes to have pretty much the entire team, including injured linemen David Ziegler and Wesley Jones, back in action by Monday.
