Missourioffensive tackle Elvis Fisher left practice on Aug. 15 with what coach Gary Pinkel termed at the time “a serious knee injury.”
He was injured in a 1-on-1 passing drill and engaged with defensive end Michael Sam.
The co-captain clutched his knee and writhed in pain while trainers helped him indoors. Fisher was honorable mention All-Big 12 in 2009 and 2010. He has made 40 straight starts.
Without Fisher, the Tigers would lean on versatile backup Justin Britt, a redshirt sophomore, or redshirt freshman Anthony Gatti at left tackle.
