Texas Longhorns defensive end Colin Simmons is considered a game-time decision for the team's next matchup as he continues to recover from an injury sustained in the victory over Mississippi State on October 31, 2026.
Head coach Steve Sarkisian indicated on November 7 that Simmons' availability will be determined closer to kickoff, while several other players who were dealing with minor issues have been cleared to play.
Simmons, a key contributor on the Longhorns' defensive line, left the field after the win against the Bulldogs at Darrell K Royal–Texas Memorial Stadium in Austin. The coaching staff will monitor his progress throughout the week before making a final call.
