KU quarterback Montell Cozart to have season-ending shoulder surgery

LAWRENCE

The season of quarterback attrition continues.

As the Kansas football program prepared for a trip to TCU this weekend, coach David Beaty announced Tuesday that junior quarterback Montell Cozart will undergo season-ending surgery on his injured shoulder. Cozart, who began the season as the Jayhawks’ starter, suffered the injury — termed a “shoulder sprain” — in a loss at Iowa State on Oct. 3. Cozart saw time in four games, and Beaty is hopeful that Cozart can receive a waiver for a medical redshirt and preserve a year of eligibility.

Cozart is the third Kansas quarterback to go down since April.
