Doubtful for The Game Haynes (foot) is doubtful for Michigan's regular-season finale Nov. 29 against Ohio State, Austin Meek of The Athletic reports.

Impact Haynes is not ruled out for postseason action, but it looks like the regular season including him again is no longer a possibility. He will sit out Michigan's next game Saturday at Maryland, and the Game thereafter is unlikely to feature his services as well. Ohio State's team has gone undefeated since its last meeting with Michigan, and the Wolverines' absence of their superstar running back may prove costly in ending the winning streak of their most successful rival this season.

The 5-foot-11 running back reportedly suffered the injury during Michigan's victory over Michigan State last Saturday and was held out of this week's contest against Purdue. Despite needing surgery, Haynes' injury is reprtedly not necessarily season-ending, though he is obviously set to miss some time.

The 5-foot-11 running back was the driving force behind the Michigan offense throughout the day, averaging 5.8 yards per attempt on high volume while finding the end zone on a pair of touchdown runs in the third quarter, effectively breaking the game open in favor of the Wolverines. Haynes has been a monster since heading to Ann Arbor in the offseason, running for 857 yards and 10 touchdowns on an impressive 7.1 yards per carry through seven games. Another tasty matchup against a vulernable Purdue defense awaits on Saturday.

OCTOBER 25 • ROTOWIRE

Seen warming up Haynes (undisclosed) is warming up ahead of Saturday's game against Michigan State, Brock Heilig of Rivals reports.

Impact It's worth noting that Haynes warmed up last week and did not play. His official game status will likely come down to how he feels warming up. Jordan Marshall stepped up in a big way in Haynes' absence, totaling 133 yards and a score on the ground.

OCTOBER 25 • ROTOWIRE

Questionable versus Michigan State Haynes (undisclosed) is officially listed as questionable for Saturday's matchup versus Michigan State.

Impact Haynes will likely be a game-time decision for Saturday''s game after having missed last week's win over Washington. If he ends up being sidelined for the second straight week, Jordan Marshall would likely see increased playing time.

OCTOBER 25 • ROTOWIRE

Likely game-time decision Haynes (undisclosed) is likely a game-time decision for Saturday's game at Michigan State, Pete Nakos of On3.com reports.

Impact Prior to Saturday, a Haynes update is not expected. The running back's 2025 season features 95 rushing attempts for 705 yards (7.4 averaged per carry) and eight touchdowns. On 31 targets, Haynes also logged double-digit receptions.

Impact Haynes' news comes not long after the FOX broadcast for the Washington-Michigan game announced that he is apparently unlikely to play in said matchup.

OCTOBER 18 • ROTOWIRE

Not first through warmups Haynes (undisclosed) is warming up but was not the first back used, Anthony Broome of On3.com reports.

Impact It appears that Haynes will be good to go for Saturday's game, however in team warmups he was behind Jordan Marshall with the starters. That could mean the Wolverines will split carries more evenly due to Haynes' injury, but it also could mean nothing. The important news though is that Haynes is trending towards suiting up versus the Huskies.

OCTOBER 18 • ROTOWIRE

Warming up pregame Haynes (undisclosed) is warming up ahead of Saturday's game versus Washington, Anthony Broome of On3.com reports.

Impact Haynes is going through drills during pregame warmups and is the first back in the pecking order during said warmups. It's a very good sign for his availability, but it doesn't mean he's officially available.
