BERKELEY, Calif. – California quarterback Jared Goff is expected to be ready for spring practice after undergoing surgery on his right shoulder.
The school said Goff had surgery Wednesday. He separated his throwing shoulder in the second quarter of Cal's 63-13 loss at Stanford on Saturday after taking a hard hit from linebacker Shayne Skov.
Goff started all 12 games for the Golden Bears (1-11) as a freshman this season. He broke Cal's single-season records for yards passing (3,508), total offense (3,446), passes completed (320) and passes attempted (531).
Cal coach Sonny Dykes said he's "pleased that Jared is expected to make a full recovery and be back on the field for spring ball. We have confidence he can build on the promising campaign he had in his first season at Cal."
