Texas A&M coach Kevin Sumlin announced on Tuesday that linebacker Otaro Alaka is out for the season with a torn labrum.
Alaka has missed the last two games. Junior-college transfer Claude George is Alaka’s backup on the depth chart.
Freshman Richard Moore made his first appearance of the season Saturday in A&M’s 41-23 loss to Alabama. The Aggies play at Ole Miss on Saturday.
“He gave us some juice,” Sumlin said. “Everybody was a little bit nervous, I was a little bit nervous, obviously Richard wasn’t. He flew around and made some mistakes but made his presence known.”
