What left him in the ICU of the University of Utah Hospital, however, was a stretched artery in his leg that caused internal bleeding and cut off blood flow below his right shin, he said.

He expected to join his teammates back in Eugene the following day, believing the diagnosis was limited to ligament damage.

Utah needs to fix that field. I think there was 4 non contact injuries on the day. I think one of the Utah WRs broke a leg. Brutal.
