Neyor was poised to have a major role in Texas’ offense after transferring from Wyoming in the offseason. He figured to be the No. 2 receiver behind Xavier Worthy. Pressure now moves to the rest of the wide receiver room to step up.
Angilau is the most experienced offensive lineman on the Longhorns’ roster. The fifth-year senior has started 34 games in his collegiate career and chose to return for the 2022 season. Losing Angilau is a killer blow for Kyle Flood’s offensive line unit.
Steve Sarkisian is expected to provide more details on the Texas injury report during his media availability after practice on Monday.
