Bert Emanuel Jr. - DNP versus Illinois Emanuel (undisclosed) did not play in Saturday's 30-9 loss at Illinois.
Impact Emanuel was listed as questionable heading into the game but ultimately did not see the field. Him not getting on the field could have just been due to his place on the depth chart. His next chance to play is this Saturday versus Ball State.

Solomon Davis - Nothing much to show in blowout Davis accrued two catches for 34 yards during Saturday's 30-9 loss to Illinois.
Impact Davis has struggled to get ample stats two weeks in a row as Central Michigan has fallen victim to two blowouts. The senior wide receiver logged an amazing Week 1 performance with two receiving touchdowns and over 100 yards, but this could be hard to achieve again if the team can't be competitive with opposing teams.

Myles Bailey - Low usage in blowout Bailey totaled six carries for 49 yards during Saturday's 30-9 loss versus Illinois.
Impact Central Michigan's offense was terrible all around, and Bailey barely was used during the whole matchup due to this. Nonetheless, the running back has never hit 10 carries yet this year, and is struggling to differentiate himself from the team's RB committee this year.
