Chris Jones is back practicing with the Huskers. The senior cornerback is coming off knee surgery less than three months ago. The initial recovery time was four to six months. Although Jones is full go in practice, his status for Saturday's game against Wisconsin is still uncertain.
"Trying not to get overly excited just because we as an organization don't want to put any undue pressure on him, but he looks really good," said NU defensive coordinator Bob Diaco following Tuesday's practice. "It's really entirely up to him. I don't have an opinion on that. I think the whole team is just letting him drive his own timing and tempo."
Saturday's game against the 9th ranked Badgers begins at 7 p.m. on BTN.
