Nevada Wolf Pack wide receiver Brendan O’Leary-Orange is grateful to be back on the field again this season.

The junior receiver was taken off on a stretcher after landing awkwardly on his neck and collarbone during the third quarter of Nevada’s 37-35 win over Oregon State Saturday, Sept. 15. O’Leary-Orange laid on the field for over 10 minutes before he was rushed to the hospital, where he remained alert and conscious throughout the night.
