Hollywood Smothers - Active but potentially not 100 percent Smothers (ankle) is active for Saturday's game at Tennessee but may not be 100 percent, HornSports reports.

Impact Smith was not listed on Texas' injury report, indicating that he is available. However, UT's pregame warm-ups have not instilled confidence that the running back is 100 percent, as he has been moving a little more gingerly than his usual standard. Perhaps that affects his workload against Tennessee, and if he cannot reach double-digit carries for a fourth straight game, those opportunities may be spread more evenly between him, Raleek Brown and Derrek Cooper.

Hollywood Smothers - Available for Week 4 Smothers (ankle) is available for Saturday's game at Tennessee.

Impact Not long after Thamel's promising update, the SEC availability report has confirmed that Smothers can mark his conference debut Saturday. In non-conference games earlier this season, he logged 41 rushing attempts for 198 yards and two touchdowns. The running back also logged eight receptions for 57 yards and an additional TD. Texas may need every bit of Smothers' versatility against a Tennessee host still undefeated in 2026.

Hollywood Smothers - Expected to attempt to play Saturday Smothers (ankle) will test his injury in warmups and is expected to give it a go Saturday at Tennessee, Pete Thamel of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Smothers missed two days of practice this week due to his ankle injury but he's still set to try to play in the SEC opener. He still may be limited though, paving the way for Raleek Brown and Derrek Cooper to have more work regardless of whether or not Smothers can play. Smothers' status is worth monitoring in the lead up to Saturday's contest.

Hollywood Smothers - Expected to be game-time decision Smothers (ankle) is expected to be a game-time decision for Saturday's game at Tennessee, Pete Nakos of On3.com reports.

Impact Concern over Smothers' injured ankle and availability is expected to continue lingering until Saturday. In the event that he sits out, Raleek Brown is projected to start in Texas' backfield, but Smothers' absence gives the Longhorns one less effective punch in their run game. Even with the difficulty of a move to Texas, Smothers has been solid for UT thus far, logging over 250 all-purpose yards and averaging a touchdown scored across three games.
