Washington Huskies center Landen Hatchett is nearing a return from a wrist injury. He was included on the depth chart ahead of the Big Ten opener against Minnesota, a significant step as he has been recovering from a broken scaphoid bone suffered last October. While his progress has been slow, coaches remain hopeful for his participation in practice. However, Hatchett has not yet received medical clearance for contact drills. His potential return could benefit a Washington offense currently struggling in rushing, averaging only 129.6 yards per game.
