Jaydon Blue News, Rumors, Updates - Texas Longhorns | FOX Sports

Modest production in win Blue notched 11 rushes for 57 yards and reeled in three of five targets for 37 yards during Saturday's 52-0 win against Colorado State.

Impact Blue started as the lead back in place of CJ Baxter (knee) and finished with the highest amount of carries in the team, falling just short of 100 all-purpose yards. The game got our hand rather quickly, so there was no need to overwork the starting running back. He will face a much tougher opponent in Saturday's road matchup against Michigan.

Takes first-team reps Saturday Blue took first-team reps during Texas' practice Saturday, Andrew Miller of FanSided reports.

Impact Blue taking first-team reps Saturday is not surprising, considering he is the most proven option available among Texas' running backs after CJ Baxter (knee) underwent season-ending surgery less than a week ago. Blue logged 65 carries for 398 yards (6.1 averaged per carry) and three touchdowns during his 2023 season. He also recorded 14 receptions for 137 yards and one TD. Baxter being out for 2024 gives Blue an excellent opportunity to elevate his rushing and receiving output into the next level, making him a likely breakout candidate.
