Sad news; Injured Texas QB Quinn Ewers won’t return to the No. 1 Longhorns for next game…..
Texas quarterback Quinn Ewers is considered “questionable” for the No. 1 Longhorns’ game this week against Louisiana-Monroe after leaving a 56-7 win over UTSA in the second quarter with an abdominal strain, coach Steve Sarkisian said Monday.
Second-year freshman Arch Manning took over the offense and passed for four touchdowns and ran for another in the rout. Manning would get his first career start if Ewers cannot play.
“We’re going to monitor (Ewers) day to day and see what this looks like,” Sarkisian said.
The injury was not caused by contact. Sarkisian said Ewers was hurt on a deep pass to tight end Gunnar Helm two plays before he left the game. The next play was a handoff, and Ewers signaled to the medical staff before dropping to lay on the field
