Per Tom Herman’s Monday presser, the Longhorns’ badass junior left tackle will undergo knee surgery in the next week to ten days following his first-half injury against the Trojans on Saturday night. It sounds like the preliminary diagnosis is a sprained MCL and PCL along with a torn meniscus and probably some cartilage damage to boot. None of those things is individually terrible, and assuming the docs find what they’re expecting when they go in there you’re probably looking at a recovery time on the order of five weeks or so.
What Williams elects to do once he’s recovered is another matter.
