Texas A&M QB Marcel Reed helped off the field early in rivalry game against Texas

By Canadian Press on November 28, 2025.

AUSTIN, Texas (AP) — Texas A&M quarterback Marcel Reed had to be helped off the field late in the first quarter Friday night in the No. 3 Aggies’ matchup with rival No. 16 Texas.

Reed, who has emerged as a late-season Heisman Trophy contender for the undefeated Aggies, slipped on a scramble and went to the ground untouched. Television replays appeared to show his left ankle twist as he tried to make a cut.

Reed was 4 of 9 for 47 yards with another 20 yards rushing when he left with 2:59 left in the first quarter.

Reed was replaced Miles O’Neill and A&M’s drive ended with a blocked field goal to keep the game scoreless heading into the second quarter.

Texas A&M can wrap up a spot in the Southeastern Conference championship game with a victory.
