Texas QB Ewers Injured, Manning Steps In Against UTSA

In a recent game against UTSA, Texas quarterback Quinn Ewers exited the field in the second quarter due to an apparent injury. At the time of his departure, the Longhorns were leading 14-0. Ewers had just completed a handoff when he fell to the ground and remained on his back until medical staff attended to him. Although he managed to walk off the field, he appeared to be in discomfort and covered his face with his jersey as he entered the medical tent. Ewers had an impressive performance prior to his injury, completing 14 of 16 passes for 185 yards, including two touchdowns and one interception. His absence prompted backup quarterback Arch Manning to step in and take control of the game. Manning quickly made an impact, throwing a 19-yard touchdown pass to DeAndre Moore on his very first play. Following that, Manning showcased his athleticism by running for a remarkable 67-yard touchdown on the next possession, further solidifying his role in the game. The Longhorns' offense continued to thrive under Manning's leadership, demonstrating the depth of talent on the team. As of now, Texas officials have not provided any updates regarding Ewers' condition. This injury raises concerns, especially considering Ewers' history of missing four games over the previous two seasons due to similar issues. The team's performance moving forward will depend significantly on Ewers' recovery and Manning's ability to maintain the momentum built during this game.
