Steve Sarkisian updates Texas WR Isaiah Neyor’s health

Isaiah Neyor is back on the practice field running routes.

Texas wide receiver Isaiah Neyor is making his comeback. The talented pass catcher made his way onto the practice field and looked good running routes and catching passes.

Texas head coach Steve Sarkisian said the following of Neyor’s ramp up toward playing in the 2023 season.

He looked as good as he’s looked. His rehab has gone really well for him, not only physically but mentally. Any time you have surgery like that, as much as it is the physical rehab, it’s the mental rehab … I think that gradually working him back in at the rate that we’re going is a good sign for where we need to be come the fall.

Neyor is a true X-Factor for the football program heading into a pivotal third season with head coach Steve Sarkisian. In many ways, he presents some of the offense’s greatest upside because of his versatility. Texas hopes he will return to the player he was prior to his injury.
