Badgers get creative after injuries leave them shorthanded at tight end

The University of Wisconsin football team got creative at tight end after another injury left the unit shorthanded in its 2018 season opener.

Already without fifth-year senior starter Zander Neuville, the No. 4 Badgers lost sophomore Luke Benzschawel to an injury in the first half of their 34-3 victory over Western Kentucky on Friday night at Camp Randall Stadium.

Down its top two blocking tight ends, UW turned to redshirt freshman Logan Bruss in some of its sets that included multiple tight ends. Bruss, an offensive lineman from Kimberly, switched jerseys from No. 60 to No. 85 for the game.
