Texas left tackle Trevor Goosby returned to the practice field this week following a noncontact knee injury sustained during a walk-through on August 17. Head coach Steve Sarkisian confirmed the return of the All-American lineman alongside left guard Laurence Seymore III, though he did not specify if either will participate in the upcoming season opener against Texas State. Goosby was initially sidelined by what was diagnosed as a bone bruise. His return provides stability to an offensive line that has relied on Andre Cojoe and Dylan Sikorski as replacements over the last two weeks. Quarterback Arch Manning and center Connor Robertson noted the impact of Goosby's leadership and technical skill on the offensive unit's chemistry. The Longhorns face Texas State this Saturday at Royal-Memorial Stadium as they prepare to open their 2026 campaign.
