Cincinnati WR JV Gibson discharged from hospital after scary injury.
CincinnatiThe Cincinnati Bearcats’ college football game on Saturday had a long delay due to an injury to JV Gibson. Trainers surrounded Gibson, and they had to bring out a back board to keep him stabilized as they took Gibson away from the field.
Gibson was carted off the field after taking a hard hit from Houston defensive back Jordan Allen at roughly the seven-minute mark in the fourth quarter. Allen was whistled for targeting – and later ejected upon review – after he launched upward and hit Gibson on his helmet, knocking the Bearcats receiver off his feet with the ball having already passed by him.
