The injury bug continues to bite the Oklahoma Sooners in 2024 and don't show any signs of improving anytime soon.

The Sooners released their Week 5 injury report ahead of their SEC matchup against the Auburn Tigers, and it is a long one. 

Wide receivers Jayden Gibson and Jalil Farooq were on the report last week, with Gibson out for the season. Geirean Hatchett is also out for the year. Kendel Dolby suffered a fractured ankle and is expected to miss most of the season.  

Wide receiver Nic Anderson debuted against Tennessee and promptly played nine snaps before getting hurt. Anderson strained his quad, according to head coach Brent Venables. Additionally, wide receiver Andrel Anthony, who was listed as questionable last week but didn't play, was downgraded to doubtful this week. 

Cornerback Gentry Williams has missed the last two games and played just one snap in Oklahoma's Week 2 against Houston, dealing with a shoulder injury. 

Running back Taylor Tatum suffered a concussion against the Tennessee Volunteers and was labeled as doubtful to play this week. Star wide receiver Deion Burks took several big hits against Tennessee and was visibly struggling to play by the end, hence why he was declared questionable to play this week. 

To make matters worse, the starting kicker Tyler Keltner is battling appendicitis. Yep.

On a positive note, LB Dasan McCullough has continued to ramp up work, improving from doubtful to questionable this week. The same can be said for starting right tackle Jake Taylor, who was questionable last week but has been upgraded to probable this week.

Starting right tackle Izavion Miller is also questionable to play this week. Miller played last week but did not play in the Tigers' Week 3 matchup against New Mexico. 

Auburn's starting kicker, Alec McPherson, has been battling a gastrointestinal illness all year and hasn't played this season. He is listed as questionable. Towns McGough has filled in during his absence, hitting all 20 extra points and kicking 2-3 on field goals.
