Missouri starting quarterback Brady Cook is questionable for Saturday’s game against Memphis, a source told ESPN.
Cook is dealing with the lingering effects of a knee injury from a hit he took in the first half of this past Saturday’s game against No. 15 Kansas State, in which he threw for 356 yards and two touchdowns to lead the Tigers to a 30-27 win.
Cook spent most of last season playing through a shoulder injury that required offseason surgery, as he tore his labrum against Kansas State last season.
Backup quarterback Sam Horn would start for Missouri if Cook can’t go, sources told ESPN. Miami transfer Jake Garcia would serve as the backup to Horn.
Missouri hosts Memphis (3-0) on Saturday in a matchup of undefeated teams, 4:30 pregame and the kick at 6:30 on KIRX.
