Injury Update: WR Marquez Stevenson goes down with apparent leg injury

The Houston football team was defeated in a 44-21 blowout against UCF on Saturday afternoon, but the team also suffered other losses in the contest when senior receiver Marquez Stevenson left the game with an apparent lower leg injury.

“Speedy,” as he is known by his teammates on the football field, left the game during the first quarter against UCF after making a 12-yard catch. He limped towards the sidelines.

After the game, head coach Dana Holgorsen said that he had no specific knowledge of what happened to the 6-foot wideout, but he did say that he had been taken into the locker room for an X-ray and later came back out onto the field in street clothes and reportedly a boot on his left foot.
