Crosby appeared to suffer an injury to his head and/or neck area while trying to make a tackle in the third quarter of the Bobcats’ matchup against James Madison. Crosby ran into a teammate’s backside and fell to the turf, where he lay motionless for several moments.
Trainers ran to the field to look at Crosby, with both teams kneeling in front of a silent crowd at UFCU Stadium in San Marcos, Texas. Crosby was eventually placed on a stretcher to be taken off the field. He gave a thumbs up as he exited the field.
Crosby was taken to Seton Medical Center for further evaluation, according to the ESPN2 broadcast. Following the Texas State 52-20 loss to James Madison, Bobcats coach GJ Kinne did not have any immediate updates.
‘I know the team is really worried about him,’ Kinne said. ‘Prayed for him afterward in the locker room, just praying that he’s OK.’
