Mississippi State quarterback Kamario Taylor was headed for the locker room during the first half of the Bulldogs’ game against Oklahoma on Saturday.
Taylor missed Mississippi State’s loss to LSU during Week 7 due to a right foot injury that appeared to be reaggravated during the Sooners game, Yahoo Sports reported. After being questionable for return, Taylor was officially ruled out for the rest of the game.
He was 2-of-5 for 10 yards with a loss of 12 yards on three rushing attempts.
Taylor was replaced by freshman Parker Puckett, who fell to LSU the week before with 16-of-26 for 121 yards and an interception. The Tigers completely shut out the Bulldogs, 31-0.
