If the Texas Longhorns have to turn to backup quarterback Matthew Caldwell, head coach Steve Sarkisian knows they'll be in good hands.

Sarkisian has connections in the NFL. He worked as a quarterbacks coach for the Oakland Raiders in 2004 and served as the offensive coordinator for the Atlanta Falcons in 2017 and 2018. On "The Matt Barrie Show," ESPN's Paul Finebaum suggested that he believes the rumors about Sarkisian may be true, despite Sarkisian's denials.
