The freshman was hurt on a helmet-to-helmet hit from Washington's Donald Butler while Prince scrambled downfield in the Bruins' 24-23 win over the Huskies last weekend. Prince sat out the second half, and said he didn't remember the hit after the game.

Coach Rick Neuheisel says Prince showed "zero complications" from his head injury Monday. Neuheisel expects Prince to be cleared to practice and play after passing tests on Tuesday.

Prince has passed for 1,264 yards and five touchdowns with five interceptions in seven starts for the Bruins (4-5, 1-5 Pac-10). UCLA visits Washington State on Saturday.
