BC linebacker Bodie Kahoun taken off field by ambulance in 2nd quarter
Boston College said Bodie Kahoun has movement in all extremities and is being evaluated at a hospital after a second-quarter tackle injury.
Boston College linebacker Bodie Kahoun was taken off the field by ambulance during the second quarter of Friday night's game against Rutgers in Chestnut Hill, Mass., following a collision on a tackle.
Kahoun, a 6-foot-2 redshirt sophomore, remained on the turf after leading with his head during a tackle on Rutgers running back Antwan Raymond, prompting medical staff to rush the field.
Trainers from both teams attended to the player before securing him on a stretcher and moving him to an ambulance positioned near the 50-yard line at Alumni Stadium.
Boston College stated Kahoun "has movement in all extremities and is being taken to a local hospital for further examination," as coaches Bill O'Brien and Greg Schiano watched from the sideline.
The crowd at Alumni Stadium gave the Eagles player a loud ovation as Kahoun gave a thumbs-up while being loaded into the ambulance, capping his six-tackle performance.
