Story summary

Josh Hough, a 335-pound defensive tackle for the Cincinnati Bearcats, suffered an apparent left leg injury during the second quarter of their game against West Virginia on Saturday. After being placed in a cart to be taken off the field, a West Virginia staffer accidentally backed the cart into a wall at Milan Puskar Stadium, causing Hough additional pain and potentially further damage to his already injured leg. The incident was captured by the TNT broadcast and went viral on social media. Hough was ruled out for the rest of the game with a lower-body injury, and it is unclear if the collision worsened his initial injury. Hough has been a key contributor to Cincinnati’s defense this season.
