He's ok and leaving the hospital shortly. It's pretty much just a concussion.

I have not heard anything. Hopefully, from what was reported from the field, he is OK and they were just making sure. A very scary injury though. I hate to see that happen to any player.

Why was there no discussion of targeting?

Concussions are serious but I'm thankful it wasn't something even worse. He'll have a several months to recover and hopefully be well for next season.

Um that was the definition of leading with your helmet

@MattJonesADG: Bret Bielema said Dominique Reed was back at the stadium and with the team in the locker room. "He is alive and well...smiling."

Reed was not a defenseless player and the defender did not launch at him. There was helmet to helmet contact, but you can tell the defender wasn't aiming for Reed's head.

He ducked into him ,but looked to me the hardest lick was with the turf. His head hit the turf solid.Praying he's ok.

His head tried to the left extremely quick after the hit, but it shouldn't have been a penalty. Just a fluke play. Football is a physical sport and the players get hurt and it isn't always due to something against the rules. Thankfully he is OK.

Didn't look like there was mal intent at all, I agree. Thank God everything looks ok.

The runner pretty much ducked his head low enough to be hit by the tackler. I can't see them starting to call that as targeting.

Hafe to disagree, if I wanted to complain about anything is him leading with the crown of his helmet,a and that's pushing it considering the whole play.
