Despite suffering a first-degree sprain in his shoulder two weeks, Texas quarterback Sam Ehlinger is "on schedule" to play Saturday against Oklahoma State, according to Jake Trotter of ESPN.

"Sam's progress is great," head coach Tom Herman said. "It's another thing to let the ball rip and roar around the field during a practice. We'll know more (Tuesday) when we put the pads on."

The injury first occurred during the Oct. 13 win over Baylor, but fortunately, Texas had a bye last week, giving the quarterback extra recovery time before the next game.
