In just two hours, Michigan football will take on Minnesota on the road for the Little Brown Jug. The Wolverines, who are 5-0 on the year so far (2-0 Big Ten), have a few injuries to keep a close eye on this evening — notably, Mason Graham and Myles Hinton and questionable against the Golden Gophers.

2 Michigan football starters questionable vs. Minnesota

Myles Hinton has been in and out with injury issues over the past few weeks, and while it remains unknown what exactly is wrong, it’s largely expected that he won’t play the full game against Minnesota.

The Wolverines will either sit Hinton today or start Karsen Barnhart at right tackle with ASU transfer LaDarius Henderson at left tackle. Regardless, there is a very good chance that we see all three of these stars today.

additionally, top defensive tackle Mason Graham is expected to play today; however, he is also questionable against Minnesota. Graham has some kind of hand injury right now, and while he missed Weeks 4 and 5, expect to see him either fully back or limited against the Gophers this evening.

It’s also worth noting that Minnesota has a major injury concern ahead of their contest against Michigan football, so if anyone is sweating the injury report today, it’s likely Gopher fans. We covered Minnesota’s major injury concern earlier this afternoon (LINK).
