Sherman Smith - On crutches, foot in boot Smith was on crutches with one of his feet in a boot during practice Wednesday, Joseph Duarte of The Houston Chronicle reports.
Impact Smith is a 5-foot-7, 185-pound junior looking to make his mark among Houston's running backs. But with his left foot in a boot Wednesday, him being immediately available for games may not be the case. Smith has between three and four weeks to recover before Houston's 2024 team begins its season by hosting UNLV on Aug. 31.

Joseph Manjack IV - Participates in Wednesday practice Manjack (undisclosed) participated in practice Wednesday, Joseph Duarte of The Houston Chronicle reports.
Impact Fortunately for Manjack, he is participating in Houston's team practices again after only less than one week out. At the very least, he will look to replicate his 2023 output. Manjack broke out that year with career highs in receptions (46), receiving yards (577), yards per reception (12.5) and touchdowns (six) across his 10 games then.

Marquis Shoulders - Able to use feet Shoulders (foot) was able to use his feet during team practice Thursday, Joseph Duarte of The Houston Chronicle reports.
Impact Before he committed to Houston, Shoulders' 2023 season ended prematurely because of a foot injury. But as Duarte reports, the wideout "went airborne to make a great catch" during Houston's team practice Thursday, indicating his previously injured foot is no longer a problem. Even with a midseason injury, 2023 was Shoulders' breakout year, one during which he logged 16 receptions for 283 yards and five touchdowns across that many games.
