Quarterback Mark Sanchez, on the mend from a dislocated left kneecap, was under center with the first-team offense during USC’s walk-through practice this morning.

Sanchez technically didn’t take snaps from center, as the Trojans substituted small orange cones for footballs during the walk-through. But Sanchez did drop back, make handoffs and fake handoffs.

Sanchez is expected to throw to receivers at practice this afternoon. He hopes to be able to return to practice full time by next Tuesday at the latest to be able to play in the Aug. 30 season opener at Virginia.

Sanchez injured his knee during practice Aug. 8.
