UCF teammate: QB McKenzie Milton, still hospitalized with knee injury, says he "got to walk"

ORLANDO, Fla. - UCF quarterback McKenzie Milton told a teammate he was able to walk over the weekend for the first time since suffering a devastating knee injury against South Florida last Friday.

Milton remains hospitalized at Tampa General, though coach Josh Heupel and teammates have been to visit. Milton took a helmet to his right knee on a scramble during UCF's 38-10 win, and his leg bent at an awkward angle.

Teammate Jordan Johnson, one of Milton's best friends, said in an interview Monday that he spoke with Milton over the weekend on FaceTime, and said Milton had walked for the first time since his surgery.
