Paul Chryst provides promising update on 2 injured TEs
Published:
Wisconsin may have 2 of its best tight ends back in action this Saturday against No. 9 Iowa.
Head coach Paul Chryst spoke to the media on Thursday and confirmed that Jack Eschenbach and Clay Cundiff have been able to practice this week. It seems like good news for their availability in that massive game against the Hawkeyes.
#Badgers coach Paul Chryst said tight ends Jack Eschenbach and Clay Cundiff have been able to practice this week. So TE corps should be deeper this week for UW against Iowa.

Eschenbach hasn’t caught many passes this season, but he’s still much-needed depth for the Badgers. He has 2 catches for 24 yards through 7 games after having 2 catches for 27 yards all of last season.
Cundiff has been a bit more active in the passing game this season. He has 3 catches for 86 yards and a touchdown, and that score came against Michigan on Oct. 2. His longest reception was 43 yards and it came against Notre Dame on Sept. 25.
The Badgers will play the Hawkeyes in Madison this Saturday as they look to cause more chaos in the B1G West. Kickoff will be at Noon ET.
