Oklahoma’s freshman quarterback Spencer Rattler left the Red River Showdown against Texas in the quarter with an obvious bicep injury, according to Eric Bailey of Tulsa World.
Rattler never ruled and Oklahoma did not provide an update on the obvious injury.
“They looked at his arm,” Said Jenny Taft of Fox Sports on the broadcast, via Nick Kosko of 247Sports. “It was so brief, and it was some time ago. He was involved. They gave him his helmet in his hand. ” I think it was a call for attention from Lincoln Riley. “
Rattler came out after his change of moment when the Sooners led 10-3. He replaced Tanner Mordecai.
Before leaving, Rattler had an 8 out of 13-yard record with a touchdown.
Rattler won the starting position at the start of the season and had great shoes to fill, as Oklahoma quarterbacks over the past three seasons were Baker Mayfield, Kyler Murray and Jalen Hurts.
Things seemed clever at first, as Rattler pitched for 290 yards and four touchdowns with 0 interceptions in the season-opening win over Missouri State, but was about to wake up for the next two weeks.
Oklahoma disappointed across the state of Kansas when Rattler pitched for 387 yards and four touchdowns, as well as three interceptions, which played a vital role in the defeat.
Last week, the Sooners were disappointed again, losing 37-30 to Iowa State. Rattler pitched for three hundred yards and two touchdowns with only one selection.
Mordecai enjoys the game a little bit. He tried four passes in 2018 and completed 16 of 26 for 207 yards with two touchdowns and no interceptions last season.
With Oklahoma leading 41-0 in the state of Missouri at half-time, Mordecai relieved Rattler and completed 14 of 17 passes for 157 yards and a landing with an interception.
On Saturday, Mordecai made five of 7 for five2 yards with 0 touchdowns and 0 interceptions in the first half.
In halftime, the Sooners 1-2 and Longhorns 2-1 tied for 17.
