Tua Tagovailoa Exits Game vs. Mississippi State With Apparent Quad Injury After Sack

Alabama starting quarterback Tua Tagovailoa has exited the Crimson Tide's game against Mississippi State with an apparent quad injury.

Tagovailoa left the game with 2:42 remaining in the third quarter after getting sacked by Cameron Dantzler on third-and-nine. Dantzler's helmet hit Tagovailoa in the right quad, on the same leg he wears a knee brace to protect an injury from earlier this season. The Heisman Trophy contender was slow to get up before limping off the field and heading to the medical tent. Shortly after entering the tent, Tagovailoa got on a stationary bike on the sidelines as backup quarterback Mac Jones entered the game.
