Last week, Texas officials announced there was an outbreak of the mumps on campus after seven students were diagnosed with the illness. It turns out two of those students were football players, Tom Herman revealed Tuesday.

Herman told reporters at Big 12 Media Days that running back Chris Warren III and receiver Lil' Jordan Humphrey were among the seven students affected, but are both fully recovered.

University of Texas health officials sent an email to students last week explaining the outbreak and what to look for. Before that, the university warned students of the possible outbreak earlier in the week.

According to the CDC, the illness causes "fever, headache, muscle aches, tiredness, and loss of appetite, followed by swollen salivary glands."
