Mustang’s Brandon Taylor has shoulder contusion, should play vs. Yukon
Mustang quarterback Brandon Taylor says he has a shoulder contusion and he “should be ready” for next week’s season opener vs. Yukon.
Taylor suffered the injury to his left (throwing) shoulder in Thursday night’s scrimmage vs. El Reno at the Mustang Pigskin Preview. It was feared that he might have broken his collarbone, but X-rays Friday morning came back with good news.
Taylor, one of the top quarterback prospects in the state, threw for more than 3,300 yards and 36 touchdowns last year. The Broncos host Yukon Sept. 2.
Offensive line play is something of a concern for the Broncos with some young players getting their first varsity action up front. They had a better showing Thursday night agianst Lawton MacArthurs in the first game, but had to turn around and play a fresh El Reno team right after.
El Reno’s small, quick defensive line caused trouble for Mustang in the second scirmmage. They sacked Taylor on consecutive plays, injuring his shoulder on the second one.
