Very scary incident to report which happened during the Tulane and Tulsa game on Saturday. Tulane senior safety Devon Walker took a head to head hit and had to be taken off the field in an ambulance following a collision.

According to a TU Trainer (via John Moss of KTUL-TV in Tulsa, OK), Walker suffered a broken neck and collapsed lung, and a tracheotomy was performed on the field.

Our thoughts and prayers go out to Devon and his family.
