Ramping up in practice
Baxter (hamstring) is making progress in his recovery and was at practice Monday, per 247Sports.com.
ANALYSIS
Baxter hasn't played since Week 3, but he appears to have turned a corner in his recovery. The tailback is back at practice and has reportedly made "a lot of progress." Baxter remains firmly questionable for Week 9 against Mississippi State, but this is the most positive update on his injury yet.

2024 Fantasy Outlook
Fans caught a glimpse of the 2023 five-star's ability to handle a full workload after Jonathon Brooks tore his ACL last year, and the early signs were encouraging. Baxter handled 69 rushing attempts in the final five games and ran for 330 yards (4.8) and two touchdowns to go with 13 catches on 14 targets in that span. 4.8 YPC doesn't stand out, especially when Brooks was peeling off 6.1 YPC, but it's important to remember Baxter was a true freshman. Even with Texas moving to the SEC, Baxter still profiles as an elite fantasy running back who is not only talented, but should handle the bulk of the workload for an explosive Texas offense.
