Oklahoma Availability Report: Deion Burks Downgraded to Doubtful Against Ole Miss

Burks' Availability Uncertain for Ole Miss Game

Oklahoma Sooners wide receiver Deion Burks has been downgraded to doubtful for Saturday's game against the Ole Miss Rebels, according to a team spokesperson. Burks suffered a lower-body injury during practice this week and is not expected to play.

Implications for Oklahoma's Offense

Burks' absence will be a significant blow to the Sooners' offense. The junior wideout has been one of Oklahoma's most productive receivers this season, with 22 receptions for 323 yards and three touchdowns. Burks' speed and playmaking ability make him a key target for quarterback Dillon Gabriel.

With Burks out, the Sooners will need other receivers to step up in his absence. Marvin Mims and Theo Wease are expected to see increased targets, while Jalil Farooq and freshman Jayden Gibson could also play larger roles.
