Texas A&M coach Mike Elko said he is not considering replacing quarterback Marcel Reed, keeping Reed in the starting role for now after the No. 23 Aggies fell 35-6 to No. 10 LSU. Asked if Reed could be benched, Elko replied, "No." TexAgs shared the exchange on X, and Yahoo Sports reported it.
Reed finished the LSU game 10-of-26 passing for 106 yards, with one interception. The 38.4% completion mark was described in the report as potentially the lowest of his college career. Through four games this season, he has 738 passing yards, six touchdown passes and four interceptions. He has completed 55.4% of his throws, a career-low figure, and has run for 104 yards and one touchdown.
That production follows Reed’s previous season, when he totaled 3,169 passing yards and 25 touchdowns. Texas A&M is set to face Arkansas in Week 5 on Oct. 3 at 7 p.m. EST. The Razorbacks also enter the matchup with a 2-2 record.
