QB Quinn Ewers Returns from Injury to Start for No. 7 Texas Against TCU

Ewers, who ranks second in the Big 12 in several categories, is expected to bolster the No.7 Longhorns' Big 12 title and College Football Playoff hopes as he returns fully recovered from his right shoulder injury.

Texas' quarterback Quinn Ewers is set to return to start against TCU after fully recovering from a right shoulder injury. Ewers's return is expected to strengthen Texas' chances in the Big 12 and College Football Playoffs.
Ewers's replacement, redshirt freshman Maalik Murphy, managed to seal two wins during Ewers's absence despite some turnovers and mistakes related to his inexperience.
Prior to his injury, Ewers was performing strongly, holding the second rank in the Big 12 for passer rating, completion percentage, and passing yards per game for the season - further emphasizing the impact his return could have to the squad.
Before his injury, Ewers seemed to be hitting stride with four consecutive games in which he completed at least 70% of his attempts - the longest streak in his young career.
Texas is currently in control of its Big 12 championship and College Football Playoff chances. With 8 wins and 1 loss, Texas is hopeful that Ewers's return will cement its top seven position.
