- Ahead of Minnesota in 2026, Jedd Fisch says Washington center Landen Hatchett practiced more on Wednesday than at any earlier point this year, but remains a game-time decision. Fisch says the returning center has not played yet despite an initial Week 1 expectation. Increased practice participation is not confirmation that he will return or start Saturday. - For Washington's 2026 Minnesota game, Fisch expects at least one of Rahshawn Clark and Emmanuel Karnley to be available. Elias Johnson is expected to contribute, with Ramonz Adams another secondary option if needed. Fisch does not disclose whether Jaron Jones or the alternatives will play inside or outside, so no new cornerback or nickel assignment is confirmed. - Washington's Elinneus Davis is back after missing a couple of weeks, and Fisch describes Kai McLendon as healthy entering Minnesota in 2026. He expects DeSean Watts to play only if rehabilitation stays on track through Thursday. The interior defensive-line update adds available options but does not supply a confirmed Watts clearance or a snap allocation. - In Washington's 2026 Minnesota-week presser, Fisch says Champ Taulealea and Geirean Hatchett have rotated starting on a young offensive line that has used a first-time center and a true freshman left tackle. He stresses accounting for Anthony Smith and Minnesota's gap-attacking linebackers. This describes the existing rotation and preparation, not a newly announced starter or blocking scheme. - Fisch describes Washington's Brian Bonner and Trey Cooley as a 50-50 running-back split based on practice entering Minnesota in 2026, rather than declaring Bonner the clear lead option. He says one explosive 50-yard run can distort the comparison and expects both backs to get substantial reps. That assessment is not a guarantee of identical carries in the game.

- Injury: Today Cooley completely messed up on the pass protection scheme and allowed a blitzing safety to hammer DW and cause an INT deep in the red zone.

- Washington's Demond Williams completed 27 of 33 passes for 373 yards and four touchdowns in the 48-16 win over Eastern Washington. The Huskies scored on five of their first six possessions and averaged 8.8 yards per play, versus 4.2 allowed. That is the final-game production, not a projection for the Minnesota matchup. - Dezmen Roebuck caught nine passes for 121 yards for Washington, while tight end Baron Naone gained 103 yards on only two catches. Freshman receivers Jordan Clay and Trez Davis each scored their first touchdowns, and freshman back Brian Bonner added 81 yards on six carries. These are game contributions, not an announced change in the receiver or running-back order. - Washington safety Alex McLaughlin recorded seven tackles and forced a fumble that stopped an Eastern Washington scoring drive. Linebacker Jacob Manu led with eight tackles and a sack; Zaydrius Rainey-Sale added six tackles and a key tackle for loss, while safety Rylon Dillard-Allen had four tackles and a sack. The report credits individual defensive production without announcing alignment changes. - Washington kicker Tyler Robles made field goals from 25 and 32 yards. Grady Gross replaced Hunter McKee on kickoffs and produced four touchbacks in six attempts, with the writer describing McKee as relatively ineffective. This records the in-game kicking usage, not a confirmed permanent reassignment. - Washington committed eight penalties for 101 yards against Eastern Washington. The writer identified discipline as a concern entering conference play against Minnesota, despite the 48-16 win. No specific new penalty-management practice or lineup change was announced.
