Alright, listen up, y’all. Let’s talk about this A&M quarterback injury thing. It’s a real mess, like when the chickens get loose and you can’t catch ’em. These boys, they get paid the big bucks, but they sure get hurt a lot.
First off, there’s this Conner Weigman fella. Folks were sayin’ he was gonna be the next big thing, you know, like that Troy Aikman fella back in the day. But now, they’re sayin’ his time at College Station is over. Three seasons, and poof, he’s gone. Heard tell it’s somethin’ with his shoulder, a AC joint thing they call it. Sounds fancy, but I bet it hurts like heck. They even tried to give him a shot, like when the cows get sick, but it didn’t do the trick. Poor boy, probably can’t even throw a bale of hay now.

Then, there’s this other young’un, Jaylen Henderson. Bless his heart, he got hurt right off the bat, first play of the game against them Oklahoma State cowboys. Scary as a snake in the henhouse, it was. Shoulder again, seems like. These quarterbacks, they ain’t built like they used to be. Back in my day, a fella could get knocked around and keep on goin’. Now, they fall down like a sack of potatoes if you breathe on ’em wrong.
They was playin’ in somethin’ called the Texas Bowl. Sounded like a big deal, but it sure didn’t go well for our boys. First play, and Henderson’s done. Just like that. He completed a pass, they say, but that don’t mean nothin’ if you can’t keep playin’. They took him off the field, and I reckon he was hurtin’ somethin’ fierce. It happened in that big stadium down in Houston, NRG Stadium they call it. Fancy place, but it didn’t bring us no luck.
It’s like a curse, I tell ya. One quarterback goes down, then another one bites the dust. It ain’t right. These boys train hard, they eat their Wheaties, and they still get busted up. Makes you wonder if it’s worth it. All that money, all that fame, and you end up sittin’ on the bench with a bum shoulder. Reminds me of that time my prize-winning rooster got attacked by a hawk. All that potential, gone in a flash.
Now, some folks are talkin’ about another quarterback, Quinn Ewers, plays for the Longhorns. He’s got a hurt ankle, they say. Not as bad as them shoulder things, but still, it ain’t good. He got it in a game against somebody, can’t remember who. It was a mild sprain, whatever that means. Sounds like he can still walk, but runnin’ around like them quarterbacks do, that’s a different story. Ankle sprains are tricky, like when you step in a gopher hole and twist your foot. You think you’re fine, but then it starts swellin’ up and you can’t put no weight on it.
A&M quarterback injury update, that’s what they call it. Sounds official, like somethin’ important. But to me, it just sounds like a whole lotta heartache. These boys, they put their bodies on the line, and sometimes, they pay the price. It ain’t fair, but that’s life, I guess. Like farmin’, you plant your seeds, you tend your crops, and sometimes, the hail comes and wipes it all out. You just gotta pick yourself up, dust yourself off, and start all over again.
So, what’s the deal with these quarterbacks? Are they trainin’ wrong? Are they gettin’ hit too hard? Or is it just plain bad luck? I don’t know the answers, but I do know one thing: it ain’t lookin’ good. We need some tough boys, some fellas who can take a lickin’ and keep on tickin’. Like that old tractor my husband used to have, that thing ran forever, no matter how much we beat it up. That’s the kind of quarterbacks we need.
- Jaylen Henderson
- Shoulder Injury
- Injured in the first play of the Texas Bowl
- Quinn Ewers (Texas Longhorns)
- Ankle sprain
I hope these young’uns get better soon. It ain’t right seein’ ’em hurtin’ like that. They got their whole lives ahead of ’em, and they need to be healthy and strong. Maybe they should try some of my homemade remedies, like that liniment I make from herbs and hog lard. It stinks to high heaven, but it works wonders. Or maybe they just need to drink more milk and eat their vegetables. That’s what my mama always told me, and she was a smart woman.
Anyways, that’s all I gotta say about this quarterback injury mess. It’s a shame, it’s a worry, and it’s somethin’ that needs fixin’. But like I always say, what don’t kill ya makes ya stronger. Maybe these boys will come back tougher than ever. We’ll just have to wait and see. Now, if you’ll excuse me, I gotta go check on them chickens again. Them critters are always gettin’ into somethin’.
Key takeaway: A&M is facing big problems because many of their quarterbacks have been hurt lately. Conner Weigman and Jaylen Henderson have hurt their shoulders and another player on a different team also got injured. This is making it tough for the team. People are hoping the players will get better and stronger, so the team will play better.
