Texas quarterback Quinn Ewers' oblique strain is not as serious as initially feared and his status for returning to play is considered week-to-week, sources told ESPN's Pete Thamel on Sunday.

Ewers is likely to miss No. 1 Texas' game against UL Monroe on Saturday (8 p.m. ET, ESPN+), which would pave the way for redshirt freshman Arch Manning to make his first career start for the Longhorns.

There's no set timetable for his return from his abdominal injury, but sources said there's optimism after consulting with doctors.
