The Morning Rush on ESPN Arkansas reported this morning that it has been confirmed Arkansas quarterback Ty Storey will not be starting Saturday’s game against Tulsa.
Show personality Tommy Craft reported on the show, which runs from 6-9 a.m. on several stations across the state, that he had confirmed Storey had failed the concussion protocol this week.
Storey suffered the injury in the loss to Ole Miss last week in Little Rock on a big hit on the Razorbacks’ second offensive play in the fourth quarter.
Arkansas coach Chad Morris gave no indications earlier this week who might replace Storey, but it likely will be either freshman Connor Noland or Cole Kelley, who started the season opener and against North Texas this season.
Storey had practiced Tuesday and Wednesday and all appeared normal, but the concussion protocol tests are much more intensive than anything seen at practice.
