Texas QB Quinn Ewers out with SC sprain

Texas quarterback Quinn Ewers suffered an AC sprain in Saturday’s 20-19 loss to No. 1 Alabama, and will miss four to six weeks, according to ESPN’s Pete Thamel.

Ewers exited Saturday’s contest late in the first quarter after taking a big hit from Alabama linebacker Dallas Turner and landing on his shoulder. 

At the time of the injury, the freshman Ewers was 9-for-12 passing for 134 yards.

Ewers’ backup, sophomore Hudson Card, finished the day completing 14 of 22 passes for 158 yards, nearly leading the Longhorns to an upset win.
