K-Roo Posted September 30, 2008 Report Posted September 30, 2008 http://www.ohio.com/sports/zips/29926454.html"University of Akron running back Andrew Johnson has been released from the hospital, but will not play this week at Can't State.Johnson, a senior, was hurt in the third quarter of Saturday's 17-15 loss to the University of Cincinnati. Play was stopped for about 15 minutes and he was taken from the Rubber Bowl in an ambulance.Initially, it was believed he suffered a neck injury, but tests at St. Thomas Hospital in Akron showed it was ''stingers'' to both shoulders. He was released Saturday night." Quote
ZachTheZip Posted September 30, 2008 Report Posted September 30, 2008 Glad to see there wasn't a spine/neck injury. I hope he can make a return soon.In the mean time, JD said he will make a decision who the back up RB will be behind DK sometime this week. I just assumed it was Gary Pride, since he got a few snaps against Cinci. Maybe there will be some type of competition in practice. Quote
g-mann17 Posted September 30, 2008 Report Posted September 30, 2008 This is great news. I'm glad that Johnson is ok. Quote
