AUSTIN, Texas -- Texas quarterback Sam Ehlinger left the Longhorns' 24-10 win over No. 16 Iowa State on Saturday night with a shoulder injury and did not return.
Ehlinger, a sophomore who has started every game for No. 15 Texas this season, took a hard hit from Iowa State safety Greg Eisworth on his right shoulder while trying to dive for a first down late in the second quarter. Ehlinger went to the locker room shortly thereafter for examination and coach Tom Herman said Ehlinger has an "AC contusion" in the shoulder.
