Texas A&M’s wide receiver situation took another blow on Saturday when Terry Bussey was injured on the opening kickoff against Kentucky and carted off the field. With multiple receivers already unavailable, the Aggies were left waiting for Mike Elko to provide a fuller update after the game.
A growing problem at wide receiver
The setback comes at a difficult time for Texas A&M. At the end of fall camp, Madden Williams suffered an injury that ruled him out for the entire season, while Ashton Bethel-Roman was listed as doubtful on Friday and later ruled out before kickoff.
That left Bussey as one of the receivers who had shown positive strides through Texas A&M’s first two games, making his early exit against Kentucky especially concerning. The injury happened immediately on the opening kickoff, and the sight of Bussey being carted off underscored how quickly the Aggies’ depth at the position has been tested.
Waiting on an update from Mike Elko
The full extent of Bussey’s injury was not immediately clear, and fans will have to wait for Mike Elko’s postgame update to learn more. For Texas A&M, the immediate issue is less about one play and more about a wide receiver room that has already been stretched by multiple injuries.
How much time Bussey will miss remains the key question. For now, the Aggies are left hoping Saturday’s injury does not add another long-term absence to an already thin position group.
