I was in the south stands and from out point of view it looked like it was his head but we couldn't see. When they took him out on the cart he was leaning almost completely on the driver, so we assumed he was unconscious. Scary moment, prayers out to him.

I think that he really looked as if he was concussed, but I fear that he also has a broken collarbone. Those two injuries explain everything we saw on the field.

Kid is a class act and I hope he is okay.

If it's a spinal issue then the whole training staff needs to be fired for making him get up and walk around. However I don't think it is

It was good to know he COULD get up, but between the breathing, swaying, obvious pain, and looking like he was going to be sick, it looked like a major mistake not to be more cautious.

Those guys know a lot more about injuries and the procedures for evaluating them than I do, but I just hope that having him move around didn't make things worse.

I think that was breathing shallow. Didn't see his head hit. His hands didn't do that mummy pose with a concussion either though.

Your hands and arms don't have to go stiff to have a concussion. I suffered a really bad one last year despite not remembering much I do remember how I felt. I could barely keep my eyes open, I was taking heavy breathes, and I couldn't move for a couple minutes. This is very scary.

The more I think about it thought is that I think he has a broken collarbone along with a couple broken ribs...

When I got KO'd twice during soccer games in college, they taped my head/neck to a board and wouldn't let me move. And I was completely out both times.

So if it was a head injury, I don't know if they'd let Braxton sit upright while being carted off.

Hope he's alright. Also, hope the coaching staff works with him on avoiding certain hits in the future.

I guess it could be anything, but I don't think they carry him off the field like that with a broken collarbone or any other injury in the shoulder area. They essentially used his under arms to bear all of his weight to get him off the field.
