Parker Livingstone injury update
Livingston sustained an apparent leg injury in the second quarter of Texas' Week 6 road game at Florida at the conclusion of a 33-yard catch down the field. As Livingston made the catch, he took a hit to his kneecap area from a Florida defender that caused him to flip in the air.
He was helped off the field by members of Texas' medical staff back to the Longhorns bench where it looked like he was limping and in some noticeable pain.
After being taken back to the Longhorns' locker room at Ben Hill Griffin Stadium, Livingstone was seen walking back to Texas' bench on his own power. According to several reports on X (formerly Twitter), Livingstone has not yet been given back his helmet as he stands on the sidelines.
