Baylor QB Seth Russell Ruled Out for the Season

Published

on

After sustaining a neck injury in Saturday’s contest in Waco, it’s been announced today that starting quarterback Seth Russell will sit out the remainder of the season.

Stepping in his place will be true freshman quarterback Jarrett Stidham, who was a five-star recruit who played his high school at Stephenville, TX. Despite his role as a backup true freshman, Stidham has completed 85.7% of his pass attempts this season for 331 yards and six touchdowns.

Even with Stidham’s impressive numbers, the implications of Russell’s injury in regards to the Big 12 championship race will be hard to ignore.

Oklahoma State and Baylor face off on Nov. 21 in Stillwater.
