Fatinikun was hurt Oct. 8 against Eastern Michigan and sat out last weekend's game at Bowling Green.
Junior strong safety Jermaine Robinson also was sidelined against the Falcons, and Beckman said he's "questionable" to play Saturday against Miami at the Glass Bowl. Robinson had surgery Oct. 10 to have six screws inserted in his injured right hand, which he hurt against Eastern Michigan.
Senior running back Adonis Thomas is "questionable" as he continues to recover from a broken left forearm, Beckman said, as well as junior middle linebacker Danny Molls (stress fracture in lower left leg).
