MANHATTAN, Kan. – Texas safety Anthony Cook participated in pregame warmups with a hard cast and pad protecting his broken left arm and is expected to play Saturday night against No. 13 Kansas State at Bill Snyder Family Stadium. Cook broke his arm Oct. 22 in the first half of a road loss to Oklahoma State. He did not play in the second half, but coach Steve Sarkisian sounded optimistic about the fifth-year senior’s chances of playing against the Wildcats following the Longhorns’ open week.
“I think the key for us, obviously with the bye and having two weeks between games, we’ve just gotta monitor this thing closely,” Sarkisian said Oct. 24. “We’ve seen people play with broken bones before. He’s week-to-week for us right now. We’ll see how quickly he can get back.” Cook has started all eight games at free safety for No. 24 Texas . The 6-foot-1 defensive back has recorded 44 total tackles, 2.5 tackles for loss and two pass breakups this season.
