Impact Anderson was expected to miss the start of fall camp but has returned ahead of Kentucky's season opener against Youngstown State. The wideout is seemingly progressing well and looks on track to suit up after returning to route running at full speed. He is aiming to emerge as a primary target in the Wildcats' offense this season, but he will need to maintain his practice workload since there's just about a week remaining before kickoff.

Impact Anderson figures to be a key contributor on offense for Kentucky in 2025, and while his availability for the season opener will be determined by how quickly he returns to camp, he should be a go-to option on offense as soon as he's healthy and available.

Cleared for contact Thursday Anderson (concussion) is cleared and will begin easing into contact work Thursday, Glen West of 247Sports reports.
