Iowa State tight end Benjamin Brahmer had to be taken to the hospital Saturday after collapsing on the field following a big hit from Arizona State’s Keith Abney II.
The moment came midway through the fourth quarter. Brahmer was following a pass from Cyclones quarterback Rocco Becht when Abney came in and delivered a thunderous hit to the 6’7 junior.
It took a long time for Brahmer to get to his feet and he managed to walk a few steps before suddenly collapsing.
Brahmer began to shake as the training staff tended to him.
Players on both sides knelt and many showed looks of pain and concern for the injured player.
Brahmer was eventually carted off the field and gave the fans a thumbs up on his way out.
