All signs point to Texas quarterback Quinn Ewers returning to face Oklahoma Saturday in the annual Red River Rivalry game.
Ewers suffered an oblique injury against UT San Antonio on Sept. 14 and has missed the Longhorns’ last two games against Louisiana-Monroe and Mississippi State. Ewers has been practicing since last week ahead of Texas’ Week 6 bye.
Head coach Steve Sarkisian told reporters at his Monday news conference that he feels “good” about Ewers’ chances to return for Saturday’s game.
“Quinn worked last week for our three practices,” Sarkisian told reporters, per Lonestar Live. “He practiced again today. I thought he looked good coming off the bye. I think if anybody benefited from the time off, it was probably him.
“We’re going to monitor him daily, just to kind of see how he continues to progress. But I feel good about how he was today. I feel good about him going Saturday, but that remains to be seen.”
