LAWRENCE, Kan. (AP) -- Kansas quarterback Michael Cummings will have surgery on his left knee, which he injured over the weekend during the annual spring football game.
Coach David Beaty said Cummings, a senior, will get back on the field ''as quickly as possible'' but did not provide a specific timeline.
Even though he was wearing a red jersey to prevent getting hit, Cummings was tackled by senior safety Michael Glatczak in the second quarter of Saturday's game.
Beaty called the tackle a ''freak accident.'' He says Glatczak was being blocked and was turned around for most of the play.
