Marcel Reed will continue as Texas A&M’s starting quarterback after the No. 23 Aggies fell 35-6 to No. 10 LSU. Asked if Reed might be benched, coach Mike Elko replied, “No.” TexAgs shared the exchange on X, and Yahoo Sports reported it.

Reed went 10-for-26 against LSU, producing 106 passing yards and one interception. The report said his 38.4% completion mark could be the lowest of his college career. Through four games this season, he has thrown for 738 yards, six touchdowns and four interceptions. He has completed 55.4% of his passes, a career-low rate, while adding 104 rushing yards and one rushing touchdown.

Reed’s previous season included 3,169 passing yards and 25 touchdowns. Texas A&M is scheduled to face Arkansas in Week 5 on Oct. 3 at 7 p.m. EST. The Razorbacks also enter the game with a 2-2 record.
