Colorado State wide receiver Tory Horton will have season-ending surgery, head coach Jay Norvell announced.
Horton was injured during the Rams’ 31-24 victory over San Jose State on Saturday and will finish his career just 35 yards shy of breaking the Mountain West career receiving record. While the school didn’t supply details of the injury, it appeared he injured his right knee.
“His injury is season ending, but he will fully recover and have his chance at the next level with the National Football League,” Norvell said Monday night. “I am appreciative of Tory’s loyalty to the staff and for his sacrifice and leadership to CSU.”
Including two seasons at Nevada (2020-21) before transferring to Colorado State, Horton has amassed 3,615 yards on 265 catches with 27 touchdowns in 50 games. The Mountain West career record is 3,649 yards, set by Colorado State’s Rashard Higgins from 2013-15.
“I will continue to be the ultimate teammate and captain for this team and will do whatever I can to help make this a memorable season,” Horton said in a statement. “I will forever cherish my time playing at Colorado State and wearing the green and gold.”
Horton caught seven passes for 75 yards against San Jose State, giving him 26 receptions for 353 yards and one TD in five games this season. He was an All-Mountain West selection in 2022 and 2023.
