Texas edge rusher Colin Simmons returned Saturday against No. 18 Missouri after missing two games. Simmons entered the matchup leading the FBS with 10 1/2 sacks and 16 tackles for loss this season.

The No. 7 Longhorns ruled out wide receiver Cam Coleman after he aggravated a shoulder injury last week against Mississippi State. Coleman, the No. 1 ranked transfer receiver from Auburn, had played in all eight Texas games and recorded 23 receptions for 409 yards and seven touchdowns.

Wide receiver Ryan Wingo and defensive backs Graceson Littleton and Kade Phillips were cleared after being listed as probable on the SEC availability report. Wingo and Phillips opened the Missouri game in the starting lineup.

Texas also remained without running back Hollywood Smothers and left tackle Trevor Goosby. Both sustained season-ending knee injuries.

Why it matters

Texas regained the FBS leader in sacks and tackles for loss after a two-game absence. The Longhorns still entered the Missouri matchup without Coleman, Smothers and Goosby.

What to watch next

Simmons’ return and Texas’ receiver rotation without Coleman are the immediate points to monitor against Missouri.
