Oklahoma State starting quarterback Hauss Hejny broke a bone in his left foot during the Cowboys’ season-opening victory over UT Martin and is expected to miss significant time, according to multiple media reports on Friday.
A redshirt freshman transfer from TCU making his debut for the Cowboys, Hejny could have surgery as soon as Friday, per the reports.
Oklahoma State coach Mike Gundy was waiting for more information before commenting on the injury Thursday night following the team’s 27-7 victory in Stillwater.
“I won’t give injury updates either way,” Gundy said. “I never will know on those until the next day anyway.”
Hejny played the first three offensive series. He was 5-for-10 passing for 96 yards, including a 10-yard touchdown to Gavin Freeman. Hejny also rushed four times for 27 yards, including a 6-yard TD.
His running ability helped earn him the starting nod for the opener over Zane Flores, who replaced him on Thursday night. Flores went 13 of 20 for 136 yards and rushed three times for a net of eight yards.
Flores is a redshirt freshman in his third year at Oklahoma State. He did not see action in the 2023 season, then received a medical hardship waiver in 2024 due to a foot injury.
Oklahoma State visits No. 7 Oregon on Sept. 6.
