Hudson Clement News, Rumors, Updates - Illinois Fighting Illini

Full participant in practice Clement (concussion) was a full participant at practice on Saturday, per Jeremy Werner of 247Sports.com.

Impact Clement previously suffered a concussion during fall camp but was able to return to practice on Saturday. Though he was seen still wearing a green non-contact jersey, coaches indicated it was more for precautionary reasons. The 6-foot-1 receiver is expected to be a major contributor within the Illinois passing attack this season, so his return to practice is certainly a positive sign for the Illini.

Should be full-go next week Clement (undisclosed) should be full-go next week, Jeremy Werner of 247Sports.com reports.

Impact Clement being full-go next week indicates that the wide receiver should become available for Illinois' regular-season opener Sept. 3 against UAB. Thus, his injury status has improved from questionable to probable. For the Illini, Clement's update is undoubtedly welcome news, especially considering recent injuries among their receivers.

Still non-contact Hudson (undisclosed) is still non-contact for Illinois' fall practices, Jeremy Werner of 247Sports.com reports.

Impact For 2026, Clement re-enrolled at Illinois to log his fourth season. The wide receiver still being a non-contact participant indicates that his unavailability has been for multiple days, which makes sense considering Illinois' fall camp recently logged its second day Tuesday. Thus, Clement's injury status is questionable before the Fighting Illini's season opener scheduled for Sept. 3 against UAB.
