What happened: Malik Washington will sit out Saturday against Wisconsin after testing a left knee injury during pregame warmups, per Pete Thamel. Washington had been listed as a game-time decision entering the matchup. Redshirt senior transfer Cardell Williams will make his first start for the Terrapins in Washington's place.

Why it matters: Williams brings veteran college starting experience to Maryland after previously starting games at both Tulsa and Sacramento State. Turning to Williams alters the Terrapins' offensive continuity in a pivotal Big Ten matchup against Wisconsin.

What to watch: Maryland monitors Washington's recovery ahead of next week while Williams leads the offense against Wisconsin.
