Washington tight end Quentin Moore was carted off the field in the second quarter of his team’s game at Michigan on Saturday, Oct. 18.
Moore suffered an injury while blocking Wolverines edge rusher Nate Marshall on a Huskies punt that pinned Michigan at its own 7-yard line.
Shortly after Marshall made contact, Moore fell to the turf, where he remained face down until team medical personnel rushed out to tend to him. After being examined, he was placed on a stabilizing board and carted off the field at Michigan Stadium, with many of his teammates gathered around him.
Moore’s injury delayed the game by nearly 10 minutes.
A Washington spokesperson told reporters that Moore was conscious, responsive and moving all extremities, and was being taken to a hospital in the Ann Arbor area for precautionary tests.
The 6-foot-5, 260-pound Moore is in his fifth season with the Washington program. He has appeared in every game this season for the Huskies and has three catches for 35 yards. Much of that production came in an Oct. 10 victory against Rutgers, a game in which he has two receptions for 25 yards.
