It looked bad. Malik Zaire crumbled after taking the snap and shifting his weight to left leg.
But how could Florida have known Zaire was hurt? It’s not like two plays earlier, he left the game with an injury on the same knee. Oh wait. That’s exactly what happened.
The extend of Zaire’s injury remains unknown, although he donned a large knee brace for the remainder of the game as he watched his team lose from the sideline. But even if the injury turns out to be a simple bruise, interim coach Randy Shannon deserves criticism for putting his starting quarterback in jeopardy.
