Texas coach Tom Herman expects starting quarterback Sam Ehlinger to play in Friday's game against Kansas.
Herman made the announcement after Wednesday's practice, during which Ehlinger was a full participant and made 40 throws.
Ehlinger, who has started all 11 of Texas' games this season, left the Longhorns' 24-10 victory over Iowa State on Saturday after taking a hard hit on his right shoulder late in the second quarter. He did not return to the game, and MRI results Sunday revealed that Ehlinger's AC joint was "inflamed," Herman said.
