Texas left tackle Trevor Goosby will miss the remainder of the season after sustaining a knee injury Saturday against Ole Miss.
Coach Steve Sarkisian said Goosby's knee "doesn't look good." ESPN's Pete Thamel reported the 6-foot-7, 325-pound lineman will not play again this year. The exact nature of the injury has not been disclosed.
Goosby, who protects quarterback Arch Manning's blind side, has one year of NCAA eligibility remaining. He ranks 15th in betting odds for the 2027 NFL draft first overall pick and is believed to be earning more than $1 million in NIL this season. Goosby could return to Texas in 2027 and enter the 2028 NFL draft instead.
Manning has had an up-and-down season and may face additional challenges without Goosby. Manning entered the season as the favorite for the 2027 first overall pick, though there has been speculation he could remain in college in 2027 and target the 2028 draft.
