John Mateer injury update: Oklahoma QB upgraded to probable for rivalry showdown vs. Texas - CBS Sports
John Mateer, recovering from hand surgery, was upgraded to probable for the Red River Rivalry after missing one game, with Oklahoma currently undefeated at 5-0.
- Thursday's SEC availability report listed Oklahoma quarterback John Mateer as probable, positioning him to play in Saturday's Red River Rivalry against Texas Longhorns.
- After sustaining the injury on Sept. 20 during the Auburn game, John Mateer underwent surgery on his right hand on Sept. 24 and missed the bye and the Kent State game.
- Sources told ESPN that John Mateer has continued to practice and is in position to attempt to play, with Zenitz saying, 'Like we've reported the last couple weeks, it continues to be possible he ends up playing this week, but no final call has been made as of yet.'
- Texas coach Steve Sarkisian said his staff must prepare for Mateer, and if Mateer can't play, Michael Hawkins Jr. would start after his 162-yard, three-touchdown Kent State game.
- As an early Heisman frontrunner, Mateer's potential return carries major significance for Oklahoma, with 11 total touchdowns and nearly 1,500 total yards, while a Saturday return would be 17 days post-surgery.
