Texas quarterback Arch Manning, "underwent minor foot surgery this week as a preventative measure to address a previous injury," the Longhorns announced on Friday. Manning is one of six Texas players who underwent postseason surgery, and while "he will be limited during offseason workouts," school officials said that Manning "is expected back during spring football."

The following Longhorns underwent postseason surgery for various ailments and "are expected back 100 percent healthy by the season," the school said: safety Xavier Filsaime (shoulder), offensive tackle Trevor Goosby (shoulder), wide receiver Emmett Mosley V (ankle), linebacker Ty’Anthony Smith (shoulder) and wide receiver Ryan Wingo (wrist).

    Seems odd that they waited so long after the bowl game to get this done, especially if this is something that will hold him out of part of spring ball.

    Filsaime's surgery was a week+ ago. I would assume most were.

    It’s not that far removed, when you think about it. The bowl game was on New Year’s Eve and with the holiday, it probably wasn’t possible for everyone to have their surgery right away.

    Hopefully they don't miss too much time for offseason workouts.

    All minor from the looks of it. 

    As someone who has had surgery on both shoulders, I'm not sure about that.  They take awhile to get range of motion and strength back.

    Weight lifting is going to be a problem.  Also, they feel tender.  The last thing I would have wanted was the kind of contact associated with football, especially on the D1 level.

    It's going to set every player having shoulder surgery back at least 4 months.

    You need to adjust for inflation (and Arch's relative worth compared to Lee Majors).

    it depends on the procedure.  From the sounds of it, they are just cleaning it up a little...at least i hope.

    Is this a standard thing? Do players often get minor surgery during off season? 

    Yes it is
