Texas Longhorns quarterback Quinn Ewers has been in the news this season quite a bit. On Saturday in a 31-14 win against the Kentucky Wildcats, he suffered an ankle injury. This is the first time this year he has been dealing with this issue, but had oblique/abdominal issues earlier in the season.
Against Kentucky, he completed 20-of-31 passes for 192 yards and two touchdowns. Ewers did not throw an interception against the Wildcats.
Texas Longhorns Quinn Ewers Avoids Major Injury Ahead Of Texas A&M Aggies Matchup
On Sunday, Ewers underwent an MRI for his ankle injury. According to Anwar Richardson, he said:
“Good news! I’m told Texas QB Quinn Ewers only has a mild ankle sprain and will be good to go for Texas A&M on Saturday.”
This is good news for the Longhorns ahead of the Aggies matchup. The winner of this game will face the Georgia Bulldogs in the SEC Championship Game. Texas is 10-1 this season and Texas A&M is 8-3 this season. This is the biggest game of the season for the Texas Longhorns.

Quinn is the Indiana to Arch’s Ohio State. Better yet, Quinn is the Alabama to Arch’s OU.

That “minor” sprain sure seemed to impact him in the 2nd half of yesterday’s game. Hope he is mobile enough to pass well Sat. I don’t think we will be able to rely solely on the running game. 🤘🏻

I can’t tell if you are being sarcastic or not. A mild ankle sprain, while it won’t have any negative impacts on Quinn’s future, absolutely gives Sark serious concern in playing Ewers on Saturday and beyond. Zero chance he should play with a mild ankle sprain.

This isn’t good news 🤦🏻♂️ probably the most overrated QB in the nation. Usher in the Arch era. Will be nice to have a QB that will throw it further than 10 yards down the field more than 2-3 times a game. Also, Quinn couldn’t run out of site in 2 weeks. Absolutely dreadful to watch

If for some reason Ewers can not play this weekend on the road against the Aggies, head coach Steve Sarkisian would make the switch to Arch Manning at quarterback. The Texas Longhorns are trying to make the SEC Conference Championship Game in its first season with the conference also.
