Behren Morton Leaves No. 9 Texas Tech’s Game vs. Kansas With Apparent Leg Injury

The exit was his third in-game injury this season for an unbeaten, top-10 Red Raiders team.

Overview

  • Morton left in the second quarter after his lower right leg appeared to twist under Kansas pass rusher Leroy Harris III on a sack.
  • He showed visible frustration on the field and then went to the sideline with trainers, with no official diagnosis announced.
  • Redshirt freshman Will Hammond took over the next series, followed by an interception on the ensuing possession.
  • Defensive tackle Skyler Gill-Howard was carted off in the first quarter with an air cast on his lower left leg and later returned in a walking boot.
  • Texas Tech entered the Kansas matchup 5-0 and ranked in the top 10, heightening the impact of multiple injuries in the same game.
