Texas Longhorns' Offensive Line Hit Hard by Season-Ending Injury to Key Player

Texas Longhorns suffer a significant setback as standout offensive tackle Andre Cojoe is sidelined for the entire season due to injury, reports confirm. The injury, believed to be a torn ACL, was first announced by OnTexasFootball and later verified by multiple local sources. Cojoe, who was competing for the starting right tackle position alongside Brandon Baker, was considered a key component of Texas's offensive line plans. Originally a 3-star recruit from the 2023 class, Cojoe redshirted his freshman year and contributed 33 snaps last season. His potential to play a larger role in his third year was abruptly halted by this injury. Baker, a former 5-star recruit joining Texas in 2024, had limited playing time last year but was expected to compete for a starting spot. The Longhorns are set to begin their 2025 season against Ohio State on August 30.
