Meandering through the maize (and blue): Forcier's shoulder worse than previously thought

A few weeks ago, landing on it hard multiple times, Michigan quarterback Tate Forcier bruised his right shoulder.

Now, according to a report in the Michigan Daily, it might be worse than previously reported. Forcier's brother, Jason, told the Daily it is an AC joint sprain and "his shoulder is more injured than I think the public realizes."

Forcier also suffered a concussion Saturday against Iowa and was pulled from the final two series of Michigan's 30-28 loss to the Hawkeyes due to a coach's decision. As you contemplate that, check out the rest of today's links:
