Trell Harris injury update: OU football WR out for foreseeable future

OU football wide receiver Trell Harris will miss some time following an injury he suffered against Michigan.

Norman — Oklahoma football's wide receiver Trell Harris will be sidelined for an extended period due to a serious injury sustained during a game against Michigan. Harris, who transferred from Virginia, suffered a "ferocious hit" in the second quarter of the Sooners' loss. Despite finishing the game with four catches for 43 yards, he remains under evaluation and is expected to be out for the foreseeable future.

Coach Brent Venables confirmed that Harris is "going to be out for the foreseeable future." This injury comes on the heels of a previous cleanup procedure that kept Harris sidelined during spring camp. With Harris out, increased playing time is likely to be granted to fellow receivers Mackenzie Alleyne, Parker Livingstone, and Manny Choice.

Elijah Thomas, the team's most explosive player, and Mackenzie Alleyne, who might have been the most productive player during spring practice, are expected to see more action without Harris. Venables expressed excitement about these players' potential expanded roles. Harris was a key contributor for the Cavaliers last season, recording 59 receptions for 847 yards and five touchdowns in 13 games.
