Full Missouri-Texas A&M Friday injury report

Missouri

• DE Darris Smith (Out)
• QB Sam Horn (Out)
• WR Marquis Johnson (Questionable)

Texas A&M

• RB Rueben Owens (Out)
• DB Tyreek Chappell (Out)
• OL Mark Nabou Jr. (Out)
• OL TJ Shanahan (Out)
• QB Conner Weigman (Questionable)

Missouri remains undefeated through their first four games as the No. 9 team in the nation. However, the Tigers have had their struggles in their last two against Boston College and in a double-overtime outcome against Vanderbilt to open conference play. They’ll now hit the road for the first time this season in Aggieland.

Texas A&M has also won four straight although losing their first of the fall. That includes a 2-0 start to league play with a 13-point win at Florida and a four-point victory over Arkansas this past weekend.

Mike Elko provided an update on Conner Weigman and how he is doing earlier this week.

“He’s now throwing,” Elko said. “We’re able to get him out there and functioning a little bit, which is good. He will be a game-time decision this week.”

From a pure depth chart perspective, Weigman has remained at the top. Reed has been listed as the backup but Weigman’s injury has kept him out there. A ton of success has followed for Texas A&M, winning three straight Reed starts, two of which were against SEC foes.

And while Elko lists Weigman as a game-time decision, Missouri head coach Eli Drinkwitz does not expect to see the quarterback out there. Reed has had so much success for the Aggies, Drinkwitz expects him to be out there, no matter Weigman’s health status.
