  • K-State lists top receiver Jayce Brown probable; Jerand Bradley available to start.
  • Brown leads with 25 catches for 284 yards; Bradley adds 10 catches, 152 yards.
  • K-State could field full skill group, including RB Dylan Edwards, for 1st time.

The Kansas State football team hasn’t played an entire game with its full assortment of skill players this season.

But that may change when the Wildcats head to Baylor for an 11 a.m. matchup with the Bears on Saturday at McLane Stadium in Waco, Texas.

Top K-State wide receiver Jayce Brown was listed as probable on the Big 12’s initial availability report when it was released on Wednesday night. That means he is likely to suit up for the Wildcats after exiting last week’s win over UCF with an unspecified injury early in the first quarter.

Jerand Bradley is on track to join him in the starting lineup. The Boston College transfer has missed the past two games with an injury, but he was not listed on the K-State availability report. That means he should be healthy enough to return and play against Baylor.

Both players would be significant additions to the K-State offense. Brown leads the team with 25 catches for 284 yards and two touchdowns. Bradley isn’t far behind with 10 catches for 152 yards and one score.

When both were healthy at the start of the season, K-State was missing starting running back Dylan Edwards. This could mark the first time this year they all play together.

Two K-State players are listed as questionable for Saturday. They are wide receiver Adonis Moise and kick returner Bryce Noernberg.

The following players have been listed as out: Colby McCalister, Ralph Ortiz, Cub Patton, Zach Wittenberg, Maguire Richman, George Fitzpatrick, Michael Capria and Leyton Simmering.

One injury update worth monitoring on the Baylor side of things is running back Bryson Washington. He is listed as questionable after rushing for 492 yards and five touchdowns in Baylor’s first five games.
