Wisconsin Badgers have suffered another injury setback during their Week 11 matchup against Maryland on Saturday.
Starting safety Matt Jung left the game with an apparent right leg injury late in the second quarter. Jung made a crucial play at the goal line, forcing a fumble that Wisconsin recovered. However, he appeared to hurt his leg during the play.
His teammates quickly realized the seriousness of the injury and called for medical assistance once the play was over. Jung stayed down on the field, visibly distressed and in pain, as a member of the training staff comforted him.
Other Wisconsin players gathered around him, kneeling nearby and showing their support while the medical team assessed his condition.
After spending considerable time treating Jung on the field, the training staff placed his injured leg in an air cast before loading him onto a cart and taking him off the field.
Matt Traynor stepped in for Jung at safety to begin the second half.
