Report: Badgers QB Jack Coan injured, out of practice indefinitely

MADISON, Wis. — Badgers quarterback Jack Coan suffered a foot injury on Saturday and will be out of practice indefinitely, according to Jeff Potrykus of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel.
Coan injured his foot at practice and will have to undergo surgery, Potrykus reports. He is expected to be out for at least a few weeks.
"You kind of see it in his eyes… he's seeing it deeper."
On Friday, I asked #Badgers OC Joe Rudolph about Jack Coan's growth since last season.
Now it appears to be Graham Mertz's time with Coan out indefinitely with a foot injury. #OnWisocnsin pic.twitter.com/YiLwCskg4Y
