Colorado quarterback Shedeur Sanders left his team’s game at Washington State on Friday night after suffering an apparent injury.
Sanders took a hit after trying to recover an unexpected snap early in the second quarter of the game between the Buffaloes (4–6) and Cougars (4–6) at Martin Stadium. It appeared Sanders might have taken a hit to the back of the head on the play, and his head was slumped when he eventually left the field under his own power.
However, FS1 broadcaster Tim Brando said Sanders was “out with a bad arm” prior to kickoff of the second half.
Sanders completed six of 10 passes for 86 yards, including a 45-yard touchdown to Travis Hunter, prior to the injury. Sanders had broken the Colorado school record for passing yards in a single season moments before leaving the game. He currently has registered 3,230 passing yards on the season.

The Cougars lead the Buffaloes, 42–7, at halftime.
