Texas redshirt quarterback Quinn Ewers is fighting to play against West Virginia on Saturday but his shoulder will need to improve dramatically for that to occur.
According to multiple sources, Ewers is still feeling pain near the breastbone after throwing this week. Unless that injury dramatically improves this week, Ewers will miss another game and Hudson Card will start this weekend.
Ewers traveled to Lubbock for his team's recent game against Texas Tech. He participated in pregame warmups but was the third quarterback during drills. Unfortunately, for Longhorn fans, Ewers was not close to 100 percent and only threw soft passes.
Ewers sustained the shoulder injury against Alabama on September 10. I originally reported Ewers was expected to be out 4-6 weeks with two sprains at his clavicle. The goal was for Ewers to return against Oklahoma on Oct. 8.
Texas football coach Steve Sarkisian will address the media on Thursday after practice. However, Sarkisian has been aloof as relates to Ewers' practice participation level or availability since his quarterback sustained the injury.
We will keep you posted.
