It was a flashback of sorts when the Texas Longhorns watched Quinn Ewers hit the turf in the first quarter in a game with No. 1 Alabama on Saturday from DKR-Texas Memorial Stadium.

Ewers suffered a sprained clavicle, per Texas head coach Steve Sarkisian. They won’t know any more until he gets an MRI. Ewers was hit late by Alabama EDGE Dallas Turner late in the first quarter with the Longhorns driving and UT signal-caller was unable to return.

Texas junior Hudson Card will take over the snaps at quarterback for the Longhorns today. The Lake Travis native is 56-of-91 with 619 yards passing and five touchdowns in his Longhorn career. Ewers had beat out Card during fall camp to win the starting quarterback job in Austin. Card was named starter last season for Texas and played in five games.

Ewers was having a great start to the contest including connecting with Xavier Worthy the play before the injury.
