Texas A&M quarterback Conner Weigman's injured shoulder is improving and he's healthy enough where he's expected to dress and be available for the game against No. 9 Missouri on Saturday, sources told ESPN.

After not dressing against last week against Arkansas and not playing since Sept. 7, Weigman has taken meaningful reps and improved enough where he'll be back in uniform for the Aggies, per sources.

The decision whether to start Weigman or Marcel Reed is a game-time one, per sources. Reed looms as the expected starter for the fourth-straight game, per sources, but sources cautioned that if Weigman is feeling 100 percent there's a chance that he could resume his starting role.

Weigman's participation has increased in practice this week after not dressing out last week against Arkansas, as he was not cleared to play. With his activity in practice ramping up and with him available on Saturday, a compelling decision at the quarterback position will ultimately loom for the Texas A&M coaching staff in the near future.

Weigman clearly earned the job out of camp as A&M's best quarterback, which will factor into the staff's upcoming decision, according to sources. Reed played at a high level in the Florida game, but has been solid but unspectacular in the past two games.

Texas A&M gained just 297 total yards against Arkansas, as Reed went 11-for-22 and gained just 13 yards rushing on 10 carries. (He took three sacks, contributing to that low total.) Reed ran for 91 yards against Bowling Green, but completed just 16-for-29 passing.

That came in the wake of an efficient performance against Florida, as Reed rushed for 83 yards and completed 11-of-17 passes. A&M finished that game with 488 yards on offense.

The Texas A&M pass game has been inhibited by a pedestrian receiving corps, as Cyrus Allen is the team's leading receiver with 11 catches for 203 yards. Overall, Texas A&M's passing offense is No. 117 in the country and last in the SEC with 162 yards per game.

Weigman has been out since the second week of the season, as he injured his AC joint in his throwing shoulder in the season-opening loss to Notre Dame. He then aggravated that injury in Week 2 against McNeese and has missed the three subsequent games.
