Marshall’s status was uncertain entering Saturday after injuring the shoulder against Northwestern. He delivered an explosive opening quarter, rushing five times for 61 yards, including a long untouched 36-yard run early.
Marshall departed favoring his right arm but stayed along Michigan’s sideline with his helmet on. After halftime, FOX’s Tom Rinaldi confirmed the setback, reporting Marshall had re-aggravated the shoulder and was unlikely to reenter the contest.
It marks a significant blow for Michigan as it pushes to extend its rivalry win streak. Ohio State leads 24-9 with six minutes left in the third quarter.
