Iowa State's Benjamin Brahmer Hospitalized After On-Field Collapse With Initial Feedback Positive

Coach Matt Campbell described the hospitalization as precautionary, with a fuller update expected Tuesday.

Overview

  • Trainers tended to Brahmer in the fourth quarter against Arizona State after he tried to walk to the huddle and then fell to the turf.
  • He was carted off the field in Ames while alert and signaled a thumbs-up to the crowd before being taken to a nearby hospital.
  • Campbell reported encouraging early reports but offered no diagnosis or additional medical details immediately after the game.
  • Multiple outlets noted the collapse followed a tackle by Arizona State defensive back Keith Abney during a 24-19 Cyclones loss.
  • Brahmer had scored Iowa State's lone touchdown and finished with 48 receiving yards; the multi-year starter earned All-Big 12 honorable mention in 2023 and 2024 and has 32 catches for 365 yards and four touchdowns this season.
