Cincinnati Bearcats defensive tackle Josh Hough sustained a second injury Saturday when a medical cart backed into a wall while transporting him during the team's road game against West Virginia in Morgantown.
Hough initially suffered a lower-leg injury during the game. As medical personnel loaded him onto the cart to transport him to the locker room for evaluation, the vehicle struck a wall with Hough still aboard.
Hough did not return to the game following the incident. The Bearcats' medical staff has not disclosed the nature or severity of his initial injury or whether the cart collision caused additional damage.
The incident underscores the challenges of managing medical equipment on crowded college football sidelines. Medical carts must navigate tight corridors alongside coaches, players and support staff, all moving quickly and often in unpredictable directions during live play.
The team is expected to provide an injury update in the coming days.
