Michigan is looking for more offense in its first Big Ten game of the season. The team could get a much-needed boost from wide receiver Donovan Peoples-Jones.

The junior wideout didn’t play in either of Michigan’s first two games, but he was warming up on the field at Wisconsin as if he will dress for Saturday’s pivotal matchup against the Badgers.

Here’s video of Peoples-Jones looking like he’s getting ready to play in Week 4:

Peoples-Jones posted 47 receptions with 612 receiving yards and eight touchdowns in 13 games last year. Michigan has only averaged 226 passing yards in its first two games, which is ranked 12th out of 14 teams in the Big Ten. With that in mind, the return of Peoples-Jones would be very significant.

No. 11 Michigan will take on No. 13 Wisconsin at 12 p.m. ET on Saturday.
