Texas Longhorns running back Hollywood Smothers has been ruled out for the upcoming game against Missouri, while five other players are listed as questionable, according to a report from the Houston Chronicle.
Smothers, who wore number 2, was photographed handing off from quarterback Arch Manning during the Red River Rivalry game against Oklahoma in Dallas on October 10, 2026. The sophomore running back has been part of Texas' backfield rotation this season.
The injury report comes as the Longhorns prepare for their matchup against Missouri. Five additional Texas players are listed as questionable, though their identities were not specified in the initial report.
Kirk Bohls of the Houston Chronicle reported the news on November 5, 2026. The Longhorns will need to adjust their offensive game plan without Smothers available against the Tigers.
