The 2016 first round pick collapsed during a USL match and has been hospitalized.
2016 Real Salt Lake first-round pick Omar Holness suffered a seizure and collapsed while on the field in a USL contest Saturday night.
The 22-year-old midfielder was making his professional debut with RSL’s USL affiliate, the Real Monarchs, and collapsed in the 34th minute of the contest against St. Louis FC. RSL announced it was the result of a seizure and that Holness was taken to a local hospital.
Real Salt Lake later announced Holness did regain consciousness and that he would be kept overnight for observation.
