MIAMI GARDENS, Fla. -- Ohio State running back Trey Sermon has been taken to a local hospital for further diagnosis after suffering an apparent left shoulder injury on the Buckeyes' first drive in the College Football Playoff National Championship presented by AT&T against Alabama on Monday night.
Sermon was injured on his only carry, which went for 2 yards on first down. When he got to the sideline, he appeared to favor his left shoulder.
As he was taken to the locker room, Sermon's left arm was dangling loosely at his side.
