Running back Jacory Croskey-Merritt, outside linebackers K’Lavon Chaisson and Odafe Oweh, and defensive tackle Daron Payne are all expected to be available for the contest. Additional players cleared include Nick Allegretti, Jordan Magee, Marcus Mariota, Charles Omenihu, Ben Sinnott, and Javon Kinlaw. Despite the full roster availability, Quinn indicated the coaching staff will determine specific snap counts and game-day limitations during internal discussions.
