Kamario Taylor injury update: Mississippi State QB questionable vs Oklahoma

Mississippi State's offense looked out of sorts last week against LSU without Kamario Taylor, as the Bulldogs' offense was shut out for the first time in six seasons.

Will the Bulldogs get some help with their star quarterback back under center in Week 8 against Oklahoma?

Initial signs from Wednesday's SEC player availability report signal ... maybe. Taylor was listed as questionable for the Bulldogs' SEC matchup against the Sooners as he continues to recover from an undisclosed injury.

Taylor has been one of the top quarterbacks in the SEC this season, though his hot start cooled off just before exiting Mississippi State's loss to Alabama on Oct. 3 with an injury. He ranks sixth in the SEC in passing yards (1,450) and leads the conference in touchdown passes (17).

The Bulldogs host the Sooners at 3:30 p.m. ET on Saturday at Davis Wade Stadium in Starkville, Mississippi.

Here's the latest:

Kamario Taylor injury update

Taylor was listed as questionable on Mississippi State's initial SEC player availability report on Wednesday for Saturday's game vs. Oklahoma. 

Mississippi State coach Jeff Lebby did not provide much context or clarity on Taylor's status against the Sooners when he met with reporters on Monday, Oct. 19 for his first media availability of the week.

"The injury report will continue to speak to that," Lebby said on Oct. 19. "I talked about it in the post-game (news conference vs LSU). He didn't wake up yesterday morning and was healed. It's going to be day-to-day. He's got a lot of work to do, but we'll see where we end up."

Taylor was downgraded to out ahead of last Saturday's game against LSU due to an undisclosed injury. Before kickoff, he was seen wearing street clothes and a walking boot on the sideline.

The first-year starting quarterback exited the Bulldogs' Week 5 game vs. Alabama in the fourth quarter with an apparent injury. He was seen on the ESPN broadcast first walking into the locker room with members of Mississippi State's medical staff.

As noted by the Clarion Ledger — part of the USA TODAY Network — Taylor was seen wearing a boot on his right ankle for the remainder of the frame once he returned to the sidelines. Lebby noted in his postgame news conference after the 56-23 loss to Alabama that Taylor had been dealing with a prior injury heading into the game.
