On Legends and Listeners, Leistikow said Lainez is unavailable, but not injured and not a legal issue. He said he wasn't comfortable going on record with it but that he thought it would come out soon.

Sooo he gone? Why does QB have to be so difficult

Thought it was a broken thumb?

So who will be the backup QB?
Back up out of Colorado State.

So the starter is out with concussion so he can’t back up Sullivan, Lainez out for injury, how does a third string break his thumb?, move fourth string qb in season to wr, so fourth string now the back up. Iowa football…ebe and flow…that’s football.
 
That would make him injured however and original poster said he wasn't injured...weird
Yeah Leistikow was being very vague on Legends & Listeners. Kakert mentioned Leistikow being cagey and then said it was a broken thumb. Also Kakert said he was unsure if the broken thumb was on Marco's throwing hand.

Jackson Stratton is the backup:

Injury Updates:

Luke Lachey (quad) is expected to be OUT
against the Badgers but could return next Friday at UCLA. It's the quad injury Lachey suffered against Northwestern that's continuing to linger.

As a result, Zach Ortwerth will start at tight end. Johnny Pascuzzi, Hayden Large and Andrew Lentsch could provide depth.

Iowa's QB depth continues to thin:
* Cade McNamara OUT with a concussion

* Marco Lainez OUT with a broken left thumb (happened in practice Monday). Lainez has already had surgery and is expected to miss the rest of the regular season. A bowl-game return is possible.

* Jackson Stratton is the official backup to Brendan Sullivan tonight.
