Northwestern just released its injury report for Saturday's game at Michigan (ESPN2, noon ET), and for the second straight week, senior quarterback C.J. Bacher is listed as probable.

Bacher, who has been battling a right hamstring injury, sat out last week's loss to Ohio State despite being labeled as probable on the injury report. But he participated more in practice this week and told reporters he's healthy enough to play against the Wolverines. According to head coach Pat Fitzgerald, Bacher will reclaim his starting job when healthy.

Here's the full report:

LB Malcolm Arrington, knee, out (season)
QB C.J. Bacher, hamstring, probable
RB Omar Conteh, knee, out (season)
TE/FB Drake Dunsmore, knee, out (season)
DE Rejaie Johnson, shoulder, out (season)
RB Tyrell Sutton, wrist, out
CB Justan Vaughn, shoulder, out (season)
