Jordan Dwyer’s 2025 season at TCU included 54 receptions, 730 receiving yards and seven touchdowns, and the wide receiver is expected to be available when the Horned Frogs open Big 12 play against UCF on Sept. 26.

Dwyer, who transferred to TCU from Idaho, has missed the team’s first three games of the 2026 season because of a foot injury. He started every regular-season game in 2025. In his TCU debut against North Carolina, Dwyer caught nine passes for 136 yards and scored a touchdown.

Coach Sonny Dykes provided the update after TCU’s 31-7 victory over Arkansas State. “We expect Jordan to play next week,” Dykes told reporters, adding that Dwyer’s return would give the team a lift. TCU enters conference play with a 2-1 record, but Dwyer’s participation against UCF remains expected rather than confirmed beyond the coach’s statement.

While Dwyer has been out, Ed Small has emerged as one of TCU’s leading receivers. Tight end Kari Ashley also contributed against Arkansas State, giving quarterback Jaden Craig multiple options during the opening games.
