Stanford OT Walker Little out for season

Stanford left tackle Walker Little will undergo knee surgery and miss the rest of the 2019 campaign, head coach David Shaw announced Tuesday.

The 2018 first-team All-Pac-12 has been widely pegged as a first-round pick in the 2020 NFL Draft.

Little suffered a dislocated knee in the Cardinal's 17-7 win over Northwestern, and initial reports suggested he would miss at least one month with the injury.

True freshman Walter Rouse, who played in Stanford’s 45-23 loss to USC, will likely assume the starting role for the rest of the season.
