AUSTIN, Texas (AP) — For the third time in three seasons, Texas quarterback Quinn Ewers is injured and looking at some time on the sideline.
Ewers departed the No. 2 Longhorns' 56-7 win over UTSA in the second quarter with strained abdominal muscles, leaving Arch Manning to take over the offense.
Manning passed for four touchdowns and ran for another after Ewers left the field. Ewers later returned to the Texas (3-0) sideline in street clothes.
Ewers missed two games in each of the previous two seasons with shoulder injuries. Coach Steve Sarkisian noted the latest injury was not caused by contact but gave no timetable for Ewers to return.
