Before the game against the Oklahoma Sooners, the Texas Longhorns saw the return of wide receiver Jordan Whittington. He needed an arthroscopic surgery to remain a knee injury he suffered against UTEP in the season opener. Against the Sooners, Whittington led the team in receptions and now sits second on the team behind Joshua Moore.

According to Horns247, Whittington will once again be away from the team while recovering from an injury. The report states that he suffered a soft tissue abdominal injury in the Oklahoma game. This marks the third injury that will cost the talented receiver time.

Whittington is a former five-star recruit that was expected to have a big role in the offense from the slot. He played a majority of the snaps in the slot due to Jake Smith reagravating his hamstring injury he suffered prior to the season opener. It remains to be seen when either receiver will return. Head coach Tom Herman will address the media on Monday and hopefully get some answers.

The report from 247Sports stated that Whitt will miss some time, so at this point there isnt a time table for his return. This season he has caught 12 passes for 110 yards and one rush for another 15. Longhorns Wire will provide more details as they are made available.
