Michigan football junior defensive end Rashan Gary and junior running back Chris Evans are both "questionable" for Saturday's home game against Maryland, according to head coach Jim Harbaugh.

On his radio show Monday night, Harbaugh said he doesn't believe the injuries both players have dealt with recently will be "long-term" situations and said the training staff would have to see how practice progresses this week.

Evans has missed the last two games with a leg strain. Gary, meanwhile, was limited two weeks ago against Nebraska with an apparent arm/shoulder issue. He left Michigan's win at Northwestern last week with what appeared to be a similar injury.

"Both would be questionable for Saturday if we're talking in NFL lingo," Harbaugh said.

Evans is Michigan's second-leading rusher this season with 172 yards and two touchdowns on 30 attempts. Without him on the field last week, U-M ran senior starter Karan Higdon 30 times for 115 yards and two scores.

Gary, meanwhile, has 22 tackles (4.5 for loss) with two sacks and three quarterback hurries in parts of five games this season. His backup, second-year defensive end Kwity Paye, had two sacks on Saturday in relief. Paye now has 10 tackles (3.5 for a loss) and two sacks this season.

The Wolverines (4-1, 2-0) host Maryland (3-1, 1-0) on Saturday (noon, ABC) at Michigan Stadium.
