The Texas Longhorns have dealt with some notable injuries during the first part of the season.
CJ Baxter, Running Back - OUTDerek Williams Jr., Defensive Back - DoubtfulQuinn Ewers, Quarterback - QuestionableThe only contributing running backs not listed were Jaydon Blue, Jerrick Gibson and Ryan Niblett. It's unclear what injury Gardner, a graduate transfer from SMU, is dealing with and when he suffered the ailment.
As for Ewers, Steve Sarkisian said Monday that he would currently be listed as questionable, and nothing has changed as of now on that front. Ewers practiced on Monday after suffering an abdominal injury in the win over UTSA that kept him out for last week's game against Louisiana-Monroe. "We'll see how he goes throughout the week and monitor how he responds to tomorrow coming off of today's practice," Sarkisian said of Ewers. " ... He’s got to do enough to show me he can play."
The Longhorns will release updated injury reports on Thursday and Friday before dropping a final one Saturday that can list players as game-time decisions if they haven't already been ruled out.No. 1 Texas and Mississippi State kick off from Austin on Saturday at 3:15 p.m. CT.
