Late in the first quarter, the redshirt sophomore quarterback took off scrambling up the field. But the play ended short after he fell awkwardly while sustaining a non-contact injury. It appeared he twisted his ankle on the play, as Reed eventually got up and jogged off the field, according to Nicole Auerbach of NBC Sports.
"Marcel Reed walks off the field. Now jogging with a slight limp. That's a relief — the replays did not look good."
Not long after the injury, Reed was seen testing his legs. He was running and making juking motions along the sideline, per Parker Rehm of KWKT Fox 44. The Texas A&M quarterback seems to be okay in the video.
The star quarterback eventually made his way back onto the field . Auerbach reported as such on social media. Since re-joining the contest, Marcel Reed led Texas A&M on a redzone trip for the team to score its first points of the game. The Aggies and Longhorns are tied 3-3 midway through the second quarter.
