Jake Locker took a vicious hit to the helmet in the 2nd quarter of tonight’s game at Oregon State in Corvallis. This was an absolutely devastating moment for any member of Husky Nation. He lay motionless on the field for a couple minutes before they rolled him over onto his back and removed the face mask from his helmet. They took him away in an ambulance and hopefully more information on his condition will be released soon. For now, all thoughts are with Jake and his family.
UPDATE: Jake Locker has movement in all his limbs, but there is concern that he may have a neck injury.
PHEW! Early word from the hospital is that Jake is listening to the game on the radio and that he is okay. The program sighs in relief.
