Marquis Shoulders News, Rumors, Updates - Houston Cougars | FOX Sports

Leaving Houston Shoulders will enter the transfer portal, he announced on X.

Impact Shoulders transferred to Houston after putting up 16 catches for 283 yards and five touchdowns with Tulsa in 2023. This past fall, however, he was a limited member of the Cougars' offense, reeling in just five catches for 43 yards. The wideout will now seek a new home with one year of eligibility remaining.

Available for Week 11 Shoulders (undisclosed) is available for Friday's game at Central Florida.

Impact Previously considered out for Houston's upcoming game at Central Florida, Shoulders has seemingly experienced a complete turnaround in his availability. That means he has the opportunity to build on his junior season, featuring five receptions (on six targets) for 43 yards and a five-yard carry.

No-go for Week 11 Shoulders won't play in Friday's game against UCF due to an undisclosed injury.

Impact Shoulders will miss Friday's contest, but the junior's absence shouldn't have much of an impact on Houston's passing attack. He's yet to draw a target in 2025. His next chance to play will come Nov. 22 against TCU.

Available to play Friday Shoulders (undisclosed) is available to play Friday against Colorado, Joseph Duarte of the Houston Chronicle reports.

Impact Shoulders was dealing with an undisclosed injury, but he's been upgraded to available. That said, he's not expected to get many looks in the Cougars' passing attack.

Records two snaps Shoulders (undisclosed) logged two snaps during Houston's 35-9 win Saturday at Rice.

Impact Ideally for Shoulders, during Houston's next game, he can log more than barely multiple snaps. For 2025, UH's conference schedule is projected to begin Friday against Colorado.

Does not play Week 1 Shoulders (undisclosed) did not play during Houston's 27-0 win Thursday against Stephen F. Austin.

Impact Fast-forward 11 months after it was announced that Shoulders would sit out 2024, and Houston's team logged its 2025 opener. Unfortunately for him, he sat it out, prolonging his questionable status.

Done for the year Shoulders (undisclosed) will miss the remainder of the 2024 season, Joseph Duarte of the Houston Chronicle reports.

Impact Shoulders has now been shut down for the rest of the Cougars' campaign this fall. The wideout missed Week 5 against Iowa State, but compiled five grabs for 43 yards through four games before that. Seeing as he only played in four contests, Shoulders should be able to write 2024 off as a redshirt injury season. The receiver is reportedly scheduled for surgery Tuesday.

Not playing Saturday Shoulders (undisclosed) has been ruled out for Houston's game versus Iowa State on Saturday.

Impact Shoulders is dealing with an undisclosed injury and will be unable to play in Saturday's matchup because of it. He will look to make his return next week versus TCU.

SEPTEMBER 28, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Able to use feet Shoulders (foot) was able to use his feet during team practice Thursday, Joseph Duarte of The Houston Chronicle reports.

Impact Before he committed to Houston, Shoulders' 2023 season ended prematurely because of a foot injury. But as Duarte reports, the wideout "went airborne to make a great catch" during Houston's team practice Thursday, indicating his previously injured foot is no longer a problem. Even with a midseason injury, 2023 was Shoulders' breakout year, one during which he logged 16 receptions for 283 yards and five touchdowns across that many games.

May be done for season Coach Kevin Wilson said on his pregame show Shoulders (foot) is still not practicing and could be done for the season.

Impact Shoulders suffered the foot injury in Week 5 and still has yet to do anything on the field since. Tulsa only has five regular season games left, so it's looking like the speedy receiver may be shut down until 2024.

OCTOBER 25, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Not expected to play Thursday Shoulders (foot) is not expected to play Thursday against Rice.

Impact The sophomore is not expected to play in Thursday's game against Rice as he is still dealing with a foot injury that kept him out last week. Shoulders has shown his ability to make big plays this season as he has scored five touchdowns in just four games played.
