FWST: TCU linebacker Howard not practicing following hospital stay

TCU linebacker Travin Howard missed the first week of practice because of an “emergency-type” medical issue, but is home now and expected back at school next week, coach Gary Patterson said after practice Thursday.

Howard, who led the Horned Frogs in tackles last season, won’t practice for at least two weeks after he returns, Patterson said.

It’s the latest injury to hit the Frogs, who have already announced four players will miss the season because of injury. Also Thursday, Patterson said placekicker Jonathan Song may miss the season opener after stubbing his toe.

Patterson said Howard was in the hospital “a couple of days” and that there is no expectation of when he will return.
