A magnetic resonance imaging test done on injured Illinois junior quarterback Kurt Kittner’s right knee revealed only a slight sprain.
Kittner has been cleared to practice Tuesday and is expected to play Saturday when the No. 19 Illini (3-0) play host to No. 10 Michigan at Memorial Stadium.
Redshirt freshman QB Dustin Ward spelled Kittner early in the second half of Illinois’ 17-15 win Saturday over California.
