Baylor’s Caden Knighten Leaves Field on Stretcher After Hard Hit vs. Houston

No update on the severity of his injury was available after the game.

Overview

  • The freshman running back remained face down after a late third-quarter tackle that delivered a direct hit to his back.
  • About a dozen trainers and medical personnel attended to him on the field as the stadium fell silent, with coach Dave Aranda standing nearby.
  • Medical staff slowly turned him over, secured him to a backboard, removed his facemask, and placed the stretcher on a cart to reach an ambulance.
  • While being moved off, he raised a fist, covered his face, and later held up a hand as he passed the Baylor bench.
  • He was transported from the field to an ambulance for further evaluation, and Baylor did not immediately provide details on his condition.
