Justin Ibieta News, Rumors, Updates - Tulane Green Wave | FOX Sports

No longer on roster Ibieta (leg) is no longer on Tulane's football roster, Guerry Smith of NOLA.com reports.

Impact Ibieta no longer being part of Tulane's football roster means its 2024 team will have to narrow down a primary quarterback between Ty Thompson and Kai Horton. On the plus side, the injured junior will re-enroll at Tulane as a medical disqualification. Perhaps once Ibieta is healthy and ready, he can compete to be Tulane's main QB again.

Suffers season-ending injury Head coach Willie Fritz said Ibieta is expected to miss the rest of the 2022 campaign with a torn labrum, Guerry Smith of The New Orleans Advocate reports.

Impact Ibieta has now torn a labrum for a second consecutive year, and he will miss the remainder of the season while recovering from surgery. The 6-foot-5 quarterback filled in for starter Michael Pratt (shoulder) during the team's Week 5 matchup against Houston, but he exited the contest early after he completed all five of his passing attempts for 57 yards. While Pratt appears like he'll play through his shoulder issue, Kai Horton is in line to serve as the team's immediate backup pass-thrower moving forward.

First career start Ibieta will reportedly make his first career start during Friday's matchup with Houston, Brett McMurphy of WatchStadium.com reports.

Impact Ibieta is set to start for the Green Wave with starting quarterback, Michael Pratt, ruled out for the contest. The redshirt freshman quarterback has appeared in five games with Tulane, throwing for 247 yards (21-of-33), two touchdowns and two interceptions. Ibieta will look to make a splash during his debut as a starter, leading the Green Wave against a home favorite in Houston.

Returned at full strength Ibieta returned to the first day of practice at full strength, Guerry Smith of Nola.com reports.

Impact Ibieta missed almost the entirety of the 2021 season while recovering from a torn labrum. It is unclear where Ibieta stands in the teams quarterback competition, though he is currently listed behind Michael Pratt and Kai Horton.
