How Mizzou's Brady Cook returned from in-game hospital stop to lead comeback win over Auburn

COLUMBIA, Mo. — At 11:15 a.m. on Saturday, Brady Cook’s right ankle gave way underneath him and he crumpled onto the 40-yard line.

Two minutes and three plays earlier, the Missouri quarterback had hurt that ankle because of a hip-drop tackle from an Auburn defender. Cook tried to stay in the game, hopping and hobbling between snaps to loosen the throbbing joint. His ankle made the decision for him, sending him tumbling to the turf on a scramble attempt.

Cook limped straight for the Mizzou locker room, disappearing into Memorial Stadium’s southwest tunnel at 11:16 a.m.

At 12:50 p.
