Pregame

D’Shawn Jamison made the trip to Kansas. Jerrin Thompson and Keilan Robinson are warming up without shirts on in Lawrence.

Only three quarterbacks made the trip: Quinn Ewers, Hudson Card, and Maalik Murphy. Charles Wright did not make the trip due to an illness, per an Inside Texas source.

It does not appear as if Jahleel Billingsley made the trip.

On the Kansas Memorial Stadium jumbotron during pregame warmups, Jason Bean is announced as the starter for Kansas at quarterback.
