Prior to leaving the game, Rising was sacked by Ohio State’s Kourt Williams II. Rising’s helmet bounced on the turf as he was tackled.
The Ventura, California native remained on the ground for a few minutes as medical personnel attended to the quarterback.
Rising was able to walk to the sideline under his own power. He went into the medical tent for more evaluation.
Sending good vibes to Cam Rising. 🙏#GoUtes #RoseBowl #UTAHvsOSU https://t.co/a96Hu0XdVF
