Southern quarterback Austin Howard cleared to play against Alabama A&M. 'He's going to be able to go'
BATON ROUGE, Louisiana -- There will not be a game-time decision regarding Southern quarterback Austin Howard this week — and this is positive news.
Despite the fact that Howard left the Fort Valley State game with an injury in the second quarter, coach Dawson Odums said Monday that Howard is healthy and will be ready for the Jaguars’ homecoming game against Alabama A&M.
“He’s going to be able to go this week,” Odums said.
Howard missed two games and most of the past month of practice with a left knee injury, but the injury that caused him to leave the Fort Valley State game was to his ankle.
Howard needed to limp off the field after sustaining the injury and watched the second half in street clothes on the sidelines.
After the game, Odums said he could have returned to the field, but the team decided not to risk worsening the injury.
