Vanderbilt football players Jared Curtis and Junior Sherrill sustained injuries during the Commodores’ loss to Alabama on Nov. 14, “according to Yahoo Sports.”
Sherrill, the team’s leading wide receiver, left the field after a third-down play with less than two minutes remaining in the contest at FirstBank Stadium, “as noted by The Tennessean.”
Vanderbilt head coach Clark Lea indicated that the wide receiver’s exit was due to a cramp and expressed optimism regarding his status, “stating that Junior is fine.”
Quarterback Jared Curtis also required medical attention after absorbing a significant hit during the game, “which forced him to visit the injury tent.”
Despite the collision, Curtis was able to return to the field and finished the game for the Commodores, “according to USA Today Sports data.”
Coach Lea noted that the staff would conduct further evaluations on the quarterback to ensure there are no lingering health concerns, “explaining that they need to make sure there is nothing serious.”
The game concluded with a final score of 21-6 in favor of the Crimson Tide, “as reported by local outlets.”
Sherrill finished the matchup with seven receptions for 100 yards, bringing his season total to 63 catches for 847 yards, “per The Tennessean.”
Vanderbilt, which now holds a 4-6 overall record and a 2-6 mark in SEC play, is scheduled to travel to Gainesville to face Florida on Nov. 21, “according to reports from Yahoo Sports.”
