2024 Rush/Rec Projections
Sidelined with knee injury
Ogunbowale (knee) did not practice Friday, Jeff Potrykus of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.
ANALYSIS
The veteran running back has been slowed by a knee injury of late and had to sit out of Wisconsin's bowl practice. There are still over two weeks until the Badgers take the field for their bowl matchup with Western Michigan, so there figures to be further updates on Ogunbowale's status as kickoff approaches. If Ogunbowale's knee injury ultimately sidelines him for the bowl game, Wisconsin will likely lean on Corey Clement and Bradrick Shaw out of the backfield.

2016 Fantasy Outlook
With projected starter Corey Clement sidelined for most of the season with a sports hernia, Ogunbowale was the biggest beneficiary in the Wisconsin backfield last season. He was able to run for 819 yards on 194 carries while reaching paydirt seven times. Now that Clement is back, Ogunbowale figures to be a change-of-pace second back thanks to his ability to make plays in the passing game. He finished second on the team in receptions (36) and fourth in receiving yards (299), which should be enough for him to have an edge in workload over Taiwan Deal. While Ogunbowale does have an edge over Deal, he’ll still be a secondary back at best and there’s a distinct possibility that Clement will get well over 200 carries and the majority of the goal line work.
