Bryan Jackson II - Back from minor injury Bryant (undisclosed) has returned to the practice field for the Badgers, Evan Flood of On3.com reports.

Impact Bryant was dealing with a minor injury but has appeared to recover, returning to practice Wednesday before practicing again for the Badgers Thursday. He now aims to stay healthy so he can work alongside his fellow running backs and attempt to earn a role in the offense.

Jackson McGohan - Sees first-team reps Thursday McGohan took the initial first-team reps at wide receiver for Wisconsin during Thursday's practice, Evan Flood of On3.com reports.

Impact McGohan saw first-team reps with the offense for the first time during fall camp, likely receiving the opportunity due to wide receivers Shamar Rigby (undisclosed) and Malachi Coleman (undisclosed) not participating in team drills. The wideout has been part of Wisconsin's offense for two seasons but has yet to carve out a significant role with the team and will have to impress during the rest of practices to see the field this season.

Malachi Coleman - Limited participant Thursday Coleman (undisclosed) did not participate in team drills during Wisconsin's Thursday practice, Evan Flood of On3.com reports.

Impact Coleman did not see action with either the first or second-team offense for the Badgers Thursday, and there is no official reason why. It's possible he was simply resting for the session, as he has worked consistently with the first-team offense throughout fall camp and is could be among the Badgers' starting receivers to start the season.

Shamar Rigby - Limited in practice Thursday Rigby (undisclosed) did not participate in team drills during Wisconsin's Thursday practice, Evan Flood of On3.com reports.

Impact Rigby was not seen taking snaps with the Badgers during team drills, and there is no official indication as to why, though he could be managing a lingering issue that held him out of practice earlier in fall camp. The wideout is currently battling for a role in a revamped Wisconsin wide receiver room that is seeking a core unit.

Darrion Dupree - Works with first-team Thursday Dupree took the initial first-team reps at running back for Wisconsin during Thursday's practice, Evan Flood of On3.com reports.

Impact Dupree is currently competing with Abu Sama for the starting role in the backfield, and the returning back was able to secure the initial first-team snaps Thursday. Given that he worked with the first team, it is a positive sign that he should be a factor in the offense this season once again. Last year, he recorded a team-high 363 rushing yards on 83 carries along with two touchdowns in a spread-out backfield.

Eugene Hilton Jr. - Working with starters Hilton worked with the starters on offense during Wednesday's practice, according to Seamus Rohrer of SI.com.

Impact Hilton is in a battle for the WR3 role with Jaylon Domingeaux, but he seems to be edging out the latter in the race. He's shown early chemistry with starting quarterback Colton Joseph in fall camp, and he was impressive in Wednesday's practice with four touchdowns in team drills, including two from Joseph. Hiton looks to be in a solid position to open the 2026 season in a starting role.

Shamar Rigby - Participates in Sunday's practice Rigby (undisclosed) participated in Sunday's practice, Evan Flood of On3.com reports.

Impact For the first time in all of fall camp, Rigby was an active participant, which indicates that he is healthy. The wide receiver had been limited for fall camp because of an undisclosed injury, and now that it is no longer a problem, he can work on his craft to build off a strong 2025. He improved that year by catching 25 of 42 targets for 351 yards and one touchdown with Oklahoma State. Wisconsin's receiver corps definitely needed depth improvement after a horrid 2026, and Rigby will look to shine even brighter this year.

Nizyi Davis - Stands out Sunday Davis stood out during Sunday's practice, Zach Heilprin of 1670AM The Zone Madison reports.

Impact Among the Wisconsin team's tight ends is Davis, a 6-foot-5, 237-pound freshman from Indiana. After no targets during UW's 2025 season, he is attempting to step up his game. Wisconsin's tight end room is relatively unproven, even with Jacob Harris and Ryan Schwendeman logging big roles for Bowling Green and Southern Illinois, so there is at least a slight possibility that Davis can rise to the occasion.
