Injury update: Eldridge, English
Oklahoma coach Bob Stoops said Monday morning that guard Brody Eldridge will miss Saturday’s game with Texas A&M with a shoulder injury.
Defensive end Auston English could also be held out due to an ankle injury, but Stoops noted the training staff is still “unsure” about English’s status.
Eldridge was injured in the second quarter of OU’s at Nebraska, when he was trying to make a tackle after a Landry Jones interception. He returned momentarily in the third quarter, but didn’t have the “strength or stamina” to remain in the game, offensive coordinator Kevin Wilson said Sunday.
English also left the game in the first half. He remained in uniform the rest of the game, but never returned to the field.
