US EditionUtah QB Rising announces 'medical retirement' due to lingering hand injury
- Utah quarterback Cam Rising announced his medical retirement from football on Wednesday due to a lingering hand injury that ended his 2024 season early.
- Rising struggled to recover from the hand injury sustained early in the 2024 season, after previously missing all of 2023 due to a knee injury in the 2022 Rose Bowl.
- His 2024 return was cut short in the second game against Baylor after being pushed across the sideline releasing a throw and running into a hydration table, followed by another weakened performance in October against Arizona State.
- Two orthopedic surgeons have informed Rising that returning to football is no longer possible, leading him to announce that he must end his playing career due to medical reasons, while planning to obtain a third medical opinion and undergo the suggested surgery and rehabilitation.
- Rising’s choice to step away concludes his four-year tenure at Utah from 2020 to 2024, highlighted by a 2021 season in which he threw for nearly 2,500 yards and accounted for 20 touchdown passes, and a key role in the team’s appearance in the 2022 Rose Bowl.
