Texas A&M receiver Mario Craver is dealing with multiple injuries but Aggies will use him if they can

Texas A&M junior wide receiver Mario Craver is currently dealing with multiple injuries, according to Coach Mike Elko. These injuries occurred during games and not practices, as confirmed by Elko. Despite the setbacks, Elko stated that they will do their best to get Craver on the field whenever he is physically able. Craver has had a significant decline in production, with only two catches for 16 yards in October, compared to 22 catches for 225 yards in September.

He has also fallen behind Terry Bussey in catches and receiving yards. Nonetheless, Craver remains the team's leading receiver and second in receiving yards. The wide receiver unit cannot afford to lose Craver, who was the only Texas A&M offensive player to make the preseason All-SEC team. The Aggies are struggling offensively, ranking near the bottom of the SEC in passing yards per game and completion percentage.

The issues seem to stem from the performance of senior quarterback Marcel Reed and the overall passing game, which Elko describes as the most visible evidence of the team's struggles.
