Le'Veon Moss injury: Texas A&M running back leaves game following vicious hit
What happened?
Texas A&M running back Le'Veon Moss left Saturday's game against the Arkansas Razorbacks with an apparent leg injury after a vicious hit by linebacker Bumper Pool. Moss was trying to cut through the middle of the line when Pool came in low and hit him hard, knocking him to the ground. Moss immediately grabbed his leg and was in obvious pain. He was helped off the field by trainers and did not return to the game.
How serious is the injury?
The severity of Moss's injury is not yet known. He was seen on crutches after the game, but no official diagnosis has been released. However, the injury looked serious, and it is possible that Moss could miss significant time. This would be a big blow to the Aggies, who are already thin at the running back position.
What does this mean for Texas A&M?
If Moss is out for an extended period of time, it will put a lot of pressure on the other running backs on the roster. Devon Achane is the team's leading rusher, but he is also a bit injury-prone. Amari Daniels and LJ Johnson Jr. are the other two scholarship running backs on the roster, but neither has much experience.
The Aggies could also look to use wide receiver Evan Stewart in the backfield. Stewart is a talented runner who has lined up at running back in the past. However, he is also the team's leading receiver, so it would not be ideal to move him away from that role.
Conclusion
The severity of Le'Veon Moss's injury is not yet known, but it looked serious. If he is out for an extended period of time, it will be a big blow to the Texas A&M Aggies. The Aggies are already thin at the running back position, and they will need to find a way to replace Moss's production if he is out for an extended period of time.
