Penn State vs. Northwestern Injury Report + Updated Depth Chart

Penn State gets a major opportunity to rebound offensively against Northwestern — and the Wildcats' latest injury report only raises the expectations.

Zach Seyko breaks down what Northwestern's injuries in the secondary could mean for Rocco Becht, James Peoples and a Penn State offense coming off an ugly performance against Wisconsin. Plus, the latest Penn State availability news surrounding Daryus Dixson and Koby Howard.

Then we go position-by-position through Penn State's evolving depth chart, including James Peoples emerging as the clear RB1, a condensed wide receiver rotation, changes along the defensive front and the contingency plan at cornerback if Dixson is limited or unavailable.

How much should Penn State's offense improve against Northwestern?
