**Michigan Faces Injury Woes Ahead of Tonight's Game at Washington**

The Michigan Wolverines are facing significant challenges as they prepare for their first road game of the season against Washington. The recently released injury report brings a sense of uncertainty and concern for the team, highlighting several key players who will be unavailable for tonight's crucial match.

Headlining the list of uncertainties is cornerback Will Johnson, who is listed as questionable. His potential absence could have a notable impact on Michigan’s defensive strategies as they go up against the Washington offense.

Particularly alarming for the Wolverines are the confirmed absences of key starters. Left tackle Myles Hinton and center Dominick Giudice have both been ruled out, presenting a considerable blow to Michigan’s offensive line. Linebacker Jimmy Rolder, who has been grappling with injuries throughout his college career, is also out, along with starting edge Derrick Moore.

Derrick Moore’s absence means that players like TJ Guy will need to rise to the occasion and fill in the gap on the defensive edge. Similarly, with depth cornerback Aamir Hall ruled out, Jyaire Hill will be expected to step up and deliver a solid performance.

With the game kicking off at 7:30 p.m. on NBC, Michigan will need to rely on its depth and resilience to challenge Washington on their home turf. The team’s ability to adapt to these injury setbacks will be critical in determining the outcome of tonight’s much-anticipated clash.
