Texas quarterback Arch Manning was not listed on the SEC’s harm report launched Friday night time, clearing the best way for him to begin Saturday towards No. 9 Vanderbilt in Austin.
Manning spent the week in concussion protocol after he was injured on the primary play of additional time in No. 20 Texas’ 45-38 win over Mississippi State on Saturday. He was listed as questionable on the Longhorns’ harm report Wednesday and Thursday nights.
On Thursday, Texas coach Steve Sarkisian stated they must wait to see if Manning, who returned to follow Wednesday, was cleared by staff docs.
“I don’t have something past for Arch simply because we’ve got to observe the protocol of the times and the reps, however he’s making good progress,” Sarkisian stated.
Matthew Caldwell, a graduate switch from Troy, got here in and threw the successful landing towards Mississippi State final week.
Earlier than being shaken up, Manning performed his greatest recreation of the season towards the Bulldogs, throwing for 346 yards and three touchdowns, together with 169 passing yards within the fourth quarter, as Texas rallied from 17 factors down.
Texas (6-2, 3-1 within the SEC) and Vanderbilt (7-1, 3-1) meet Saturday at midday ET on ABC.
