Daniel Flair, who covers the Razorbacks, shared the update on X, writing, “Arkansas RB Cam Settles is not dressed out for the season-opener.”
He had also missed portions of practice leading into the opener because of an injury, although the Razorbacks had not revealed the nature or severity of the issue.
