The Texas Longhorns have gotten hit with some massive injury problems as they look to keep their College Football Playoff hopes alive.

Already without star pass rusher Colin Simmons for multiple games due to an ankle injury, the Longhorns lost starting left tackle Trevor Goosby for the rest of the season after he suffered a knee injury in the first quarter of last week's win over Ole Miss. He had to be carted off and now faces a major decision about whether to come back for another year or declare for the 2027 NFL Draft.

Given all of the recent injuries, the initial SEC availability report released Wednesday ahead of Texas' matchup with Mississippi State certainly grabbed the attention of Longhorn fans who are concerned about where the team's health stands before the second half of the season gets underway.

And surprisingly, there was an interesting update on Simmons.

Colin Simmons Upgraded to Questionable

In a surprising turn of events, Simmons was upgraded to questionable on the initial injury report against Mississippi State.

This doesn't mean Simmons will play on Saturday but it's certainly good news for a Texas defense that will need its top pass rusher down the final stretch of this season. Simmons originally suffered the ankle injury against Florida and missed the Ole Miss game.

Whether or not Simmons' "questionable" tag stays that way headed into gameday remains to be seen but it's definitely better than the initial "doubtful" tag he started out with last week.

This is a breaking news article that will be updated accordingly.
