Oregon quarterback Dante Moore, a potential first overall NFL draft pick, was knocked unconscious after taking a brutal head hit during Saturday's game against USC.

Moore was injured during second quarter action when he slid after a 10-yard run. USC's Desmond Stephens delivered a shoulder blow to Moore's head, causing the back of his head to slam into the ground. The hit resulted in Moore exhibiting the fencing response, a common indicator of serious head trauma. milkshakeslot.online

Stephens was ejected for targeting, and a brief altercation nearly broke out between players from both teams before officials intervened.
