Ewers, who missed several games during the early portions of the season, was favoring his ankle after he was tackled by Keeshawn Silver.

“I think he’s doing okay,” Texas head coach Steve Sarkisian said Monday. “Our schedule is a little bit different. We’re normally a morning practice team, but with this being Thanksgiving week and no school, we’re not practicing until this afternoon. I’ll have a better understanding when I get to see him really on the field, but he’s planning on practicing today. We’ll see how that goes.”

“Quinn, on kind of a scramble up the middle, he gotten — I guess you could call it the hip drop tackle as they refer to it in the NFL,” Sarkisian said. “It’s not illegal in college football. It just kept tightening up on him. At that point, I didn’t think it was worth having to expose him with the way we were starting to run it.

“The ball wasn’t clean in the third quarter, so let’s get to what are we doing best today.”

Ewers was 20-for-31 for 191 yards and two touchdowns versus Kentucky.

For the season, Ewers is 189-for-278 for 2089 yards and 23 touchdowns to six interceptions. He has worked his way up the Texas record books, currently sitting in fourth place in school history in passing yards (7745). He’s currently tied with Major Applewhite for third in passing touchdowns (60), and is third in total number of completions (633) behind Sam Ehlinger and Colt McCoy.
