UC Offers Update On Quarterback Gunner Kiel

Cincinnati Bearcats quarterback Gunner Kiel was carted off the field after one of the worst hits, and an illegal one at that, that we as UC fans have ever witnessed.

Base on a press release from UC football SID Ryan Koslen, it sounds like the young man is passing all of the necessary tests and there’s a remote possibility he could play against Miami (FL) next Thursday. But for his health’s sake and given what we saw from Hayden Moore yesterday, should the Bearcats really risk it?

"CINCINNATI – University of Cincinnati junior quarterback Gunner Kiel traveled back to Cincinnati last night with the team following the game at Memphis. His X-rays were negative. Kiel remains under evaluation by the UC medical staff and his status for the Miami (Fla.) game on Thursday, Oct. 1 is undetermined at this time."
