24/7 says he'll also be meeting with the UIL to make sure he's cleared to play this season.

From the Brainiacs:
– Team Note | Armanti Foreman – Just a quick injury note. I’m told that Armanti Foreman “rolled” his ankle today. The medical staff has seen him and is advising him to remain off the field for the next three weeks. However, I’m also told that Foreman wants to return as early as this week. Whether he will or not remains to be seen but it seems the medical staff is projecting a three week return.
Sources indicate that Foreman has had a fantastic camp. And while most of the attention has been on guys like Duvernay and Burt, I’ve been told that outside of Burt, Foreman has had the best camp of all the receivers. – (Super K)
– Lagaryonn Carson: I spoke with the a family member of Texas DE commit, Lagaryonn Carson who tells me that he is currently on campus in Austin for a visit. – (Super K)
Good Article (Free):
4 starters with ankle injuries, seriously, how hard is it to get tapped up before practice?
Yeah that seems pretty inexcusable to have that many
OrangeBloods is reporting now that junior offensive tackle Tristan Nickelson suffered an ankle injury at Tuesday's practice and will be out a while too. Something must be in the water?
Good news for DE Lagaryonn Carson.
Per OrangeBloods, the UIL has approved him to play in 2016.
shaka

I'm told that the crew of Texas running backs continue to nurse minor injuries.
Remember, three of the top four (Foreman, Johnson and Porter) have had surgeries since the last time they played a real game and Chris Warren is two years removed from serious surgery, too.
While it's well known that Foreman, Johnson and Warren have been limited in fall camp, I'm told Kyle Porter is now dealing with soreness in his ankle, which he had surgery on this off-season.
However, unlike the others, I'm told Porter has not missed a practice, yet coaches are now somewhat concerned he may be getting too many reps since the others have been so limited.

I know I sound like a broken record to some degree, but I'm told Porter has a real chance to make a difference for Texas this season.
So while almost all of the notoriety on the offensive side of the ball has been about other true freshmen - Shane Buechele, Collin Johnson, Devin Duvernay, Denzel Okafor - I'm told not to forget Porter because he could also have a major impact.
I don't necessarily believe that Porter's presence will limit the carries of Foreman or Warren. The coaches don't know exactly how that will play out either. After all, Foreman and Warren are just so big and powerful compared to the normal running back these days and specifically compared to Porter.
But, rest assured, Porter is someone the coaches see something special in and are going to try to use it this fall so long as he stays healthy.

I'm told Shane Buechele continues to distance himself in the starting QB compe ion.
"It's not close," a source told me yesterday afternoon of the battle between Buechele and in bent Tyrone Swoopes.
IMO what Notre Dame coach Brian Kelly did yesterday, by announcing both of his QBs would play against Texas, is no different than what Charlie Strong is doing.

Denzel Okafor has stepped in for Tristan Nickelson, who was injured on Monday, on the first team at right tackle.
I'm told it's been Okafor's "come to play" mentality ever since he arrived on campus that has separated him from the other freshmen offensive linemen who also arrived this summer.
"He doesn't waste a practice," a source told me of Okafor. "He gets that you go to work and get sh*t done. No f*cking around."
