TEXAS TECH RED RAIDERS NEWS

Behren Morton - Received X-rays on shoulder Morton (shoulder) received an X-ray for the injury to his non-throwing shoulder, with the tests being inconclusive, per Don Williams of the Lubbock Avalanche-Journal.

Impact Head coach Joey McGuire indicated that while they don't believe it to be a major injury, there is definitely something there. Morton suffered the injury to his left shoulder during Saturday's game against TCU, exiting the game just before halftime. The junior quarterback has been an impact player for the red Raiders this season, throwing for 2,063 yards and 17 touchdowns to just three interceptions though eight games. His status will be worth monitoring moving forward, with a trip to Iowa State this coming Saturday serving as his next opportunity to return.

Josh Kelly - Low YPT in loss at TCU Kelly posted seven receptions (on eight targets) for 19 yards during Saturday's 35-34 defeat versus TCU.

Impact Kelly posted a low 2.7 yards per target (YPT) which is well below his season average at 7.5 yards per game. Behren Morton left the game with a serious injury which forced true freshman Will Hammond into action which could be part of the reason for the significant change in YPT in the losing effort to TCU. It's also worth noting that teammate Caleb Douglas has received double digit targets in each of the last three games and has emerged at the team's top receiver over the last month of the season. Texas Tech will play at Iowa State next week.

Coy Eakin - Notches sixth TD this season Eakin accrued four receptions (on seven targets) for 56 yards and one touchdown during Saturday's 35-34 defeat to TCU.

Impact Eakin hauled in his sixth touchdown of the season and his first since Week 5 against Cincinnati. The versatile receiver also had an incompletion in the game as they've tried Eakin in the passing game a few times this year. On the season, Eakin has 26 grabs for 395 yards and six touchdowns. Texas Tech will play at Iowa State next week.

Caleb Douglas - Emerging as top receiver Douglas caught 9 of 13 targets for 140 yards during Saturday's 35-34 loss to TCU.

Impact Douglas received double-digit targets in his third straight game. Over that span, he has a combined 23 catches for 355 yards and three touchdowns. It's taken a little time for Douglas to get used to his new role at Texas Tech, but it appears the Florida transfer is emerging as a top threat in this offense. It's worth noting that the Red Raiders' starting QB exited the game against TCU, but it's expected that Texas Tech will remain high-flying and will need to throw the ball at Iowa State next week.

J'Koby Williams - Uptick in playing time against TCU Williams tallied eight rushes for 42 yards during Saturday's 35-34 loss versus TCU.

Impact Williams' eight carries were a career high. The true freshman running back also took over on kick-returning duties for the first time this year. Texas Tech will play at Iowa State next week.

OCTOBER 27 • ROTOWIRE

Tahj Brooks - Chasing history at Texas Tech Brooks tallied 30 rushes for 121 yards and one touchdown and gathered in 1 of 3 targets for one yard during Saturday's 35-34 defeat versus TCU.

Impact Brooks has logged at least 95 yards rushing in 18 straight games which is second to only Minnesota's Mohamed Ibrahim who did that in 19 straight games from 2020 to 2022. The Red Raiders are all-in with their superstar running back as he's averaging 25.6 rushing attempts per game. He's just 75 yards and another touchdown shy of recording back-to-back season with 1,000 rushing yards and double-digit rushing scores. Brooks should have yet another productive outing against Iowa State next week.

Will Hammond - Two scores after injured starter Hammond completed 10 of 15 passes for 121 yards and one touchdown during Saturday's 35-34 loss versus TCU. He also had eight rushes for 16 yards with one touchdown.

Impact Hammond played a critical stretch of the game after Behren Morton exited the game with what is believed to be a collarbone injury. Hammond also had a lost fumble which could have gone either way after replay review. With dual-threat ability, Hammond is an interesting prospect and is worth a stash for fantasy rosters in case he plays for the Red Raiders at Iowa State next week.

Behren Morton - Unlikely to return Saturday Morton is dealing with a shoulder injury and is unlikely to return to Saturday's game against TCU, according to Don Williams of the Lubbock Avalanche-Journal.

Impact The fact that Texas Tech is listing Morton's return as unlikely suggests the chances of his day being over are pretty high. Expect Cameran Brown to replace him at center.

Drae McCray - Ruled out at TCU McCray (head) is out for Saturday's game at TCU, Cole Banker of KAMC News reports.

Impact After not being spotted during pregame warmups, this news does not come as a major surprise. The senior's next chance to suit up is next Saturday at Iowa State.

Drae McCray - Not spotted in warmups McCray (head) was not seen during warmups ahead of Saturday's game at TCU, Justin Apodaca of The Dallas Morning News reports.

Impact McCray was listed with a head injury on Monday's injury report and is now not participating in early warmups. It does not guarantee his absence, but it's certainly not a positive sign. Although he has not done much on offense this season, he serves as the team's primary kick returner.
