Starting safety Anthony Cook is 'week-to-week' with a broken arm, Texas coach Steve...
Appearing in 12 games with eight starts as UT’s nickelback in 2021, Anthony Cook finished seventh on the team with 46 tackles and earned honorable mention on the All-Big 12 team.AUSTIN – Texas coach Steve Sarkisian on Monday confirmed fifth-year safety Anthony Cook broke his arm during last Saturday’s loss to Oklahoma State.
“I think the key for us, obviously with the bye and having two weeks between games, we’ve just gotta monitor this thing closely,” Sarkisian said Monday morning. “We’ve seen people play with broken bones before. He’s week-to-week for us right now. We’ll see how quickly he can get back.” In Texas’ 24-21 win over Iowa State two weeks ago, Cook blasted Iowa State quarterback Hunter Dekkers to force a fumble with the Cyclones in field-goal range late in the fourth quarter. Texas recovered the fumble and ran out the clock to win the game.
