TCU's Cole Bunce Undergoes Surgery After Scooter Accident; Could Miss Season

TCU kicker Cole Bunce was injured during a traffic accident and could miss the entire 2019 season, according to ESPN's Mark Schlabach.

Schlabach reported Bunce was driving a motorized scooter when a car turned in front of him in Fort Worth, Texas. Police cited the other driver for failing to yield.

Bunce was taken by ambulance to a local hospital, and TCU head coach Gary Patterson confirmed he underwent "emergency surgery." Patterson didn't elaborate on the nature of his injuries.

"I don't think he'll be able to play the rest of the year," he said.
