Frogs Missing in Action: Cornerback Jeff Gladney must sit out the first half of the Oklahoma game because of a targeting penalty he received in the game against Texas Tech on November 16. TCU
quarterbacks Max Duggan and Mike Collins suffered injuries in the
Oklahoma State game (November 2). Duggan played against Baylor (November
9) and Texas Tech (November 16) and is expected to start against Oklahoma. Collins' status is unknown. TCU
graduate transfer quarterback Alex Delton has left the team. Redshirt
freshman quarterback Justin Rogers, defensive tackle Karter Johnson and linebacker Jacoby Simpson have entered the NCAA transfer portal, with intentions of leaving T. Cornerback
Julius Lewis and linebacker LaKendrick Van Zandt returned to action in
the Oklahoma State
game. In the Baylor game, Van Zandt suffered what may be a season-ending
injury. The Texas game was the last game for offensive
tackle Lucas Niang. He has had season-ending surgery for a torn hip
labrum. Receiver Dylan Thomas suffered a leg injury in the Iowa State
game. The injury required surgery. Thomas most likely will miss the
remainder of the season. Cornerback Noah Daniels suffered a
season-ending injury during a
summer practice session.
