Sam Pittman provided an injury report ahead of Arkansas’ contest with Auburn on Saturday.
The Razorbacks picked up a big win over Florida on Saturday, but the game left several players with injuries.
Right tackle Patrick Kutas suffered a high-ankle sprain early on in the game, and Pittman said he could be missing a few weeks as he recovers.
“I don’t know if we’re gonna get him back this week,” Pittman said in his press conference Monday. “He’s got a high ankle, so I just don’t know. From what I understand, depending on how high it is depends on the weeks. It’s not an extremely high injury.”
Pittman also said that tight end Ty Washington, who suffered an injury during the first drive of the game, will likely be out for the remainder of the season as he undergoes surgery.
“Tyrus, he has a dislocated shoulder,” Pittman said. “Probably will involve some surgery. So, he will be out. We’re going to move Hunter Talley up. We’ve got some opportunities with (Shamar) Easter and (Maddox) Lassiter. I just think in this short period of time, Hunter Talley knows the offense better than the other fellas do, and he’s really looked good on the scout team as well. So, we’ll move him up to be No. 4 there.”
Wide receiver Andrew Armstrong was sidelined after he took a big hit, but Pittman believes he’ll be good to go on Saturday.
“Armstrong, I think, is going to be just fine,” Pittman said. “We’ll know a little bit more at practice today whether he’s cleared from his headache. But I think he’s going to be fine.”
Pittman also said that defensive tackle Anthony Booker Jr., who suffered a lower leg injury, should be ready to go against Auburn.
Arkansas has a big matchup this weekend against the Tigers. After the win over Florida, the Razorbacks have some newfound confidence and they’ll be looking for a big win on Saturday.
