Mississippi State Gets Major Recovery Update After Star QB Kamario Taylor’s Surgery

Mississippi State Bulldogs quarterback Kamario Taylor has undergone successful surgery for a turf toe injury, which will force him to miss the rest of the 2026 season. Dr. Norman Waldrop of Andrews Sports Medicine in Birmingham performed the procedure. Taylor is expected to recover within three months, as reported by ESPN college football insider Pete Thamel on October 29.

The injury, which first occurred during a September 26 game against Missouri, worsened during the October 24 game against Oklahoma, leading to Taylor's season-ending departure. Freshman quarterback Parker "Billy" Puckett has been named the starter for the remaining games, while current freshman AJ Swann remains available on the depth chart.

Mississippi State enters the remainder of its schedule at a 4-3 overall record, with a 2-3 record in SEC play.
