On Saturday during a game against No. 17 Utah, Utah State linebacker Harrison Taggart was seriously injured while tackling an opponent and had to be taken off the field in an ambulance. The incident occurred in the second quarter when Taggart's head hit the knee of Utah running back Daniel Bray; he appeared limp but moved his arms slightly, indicating some consciousness. Players from both teams knelt as medical personnel responded immediately. Taggart was rushed to University of Utah Hospital, where doctors are evaluating him for a concussion and neck injury. As the team's leading tackler with 13 tackles in the first two games this season, Taggart’s condition is concerning not only for his health but also for the impact on his team's performance.
