WATCH: Tua Tagovailoa injures leg while sliding and avoiding defenders
Alabama QB Tua Tagovailoa injured his leg while sliding Saturday night against Missouri.
With Alabama up 30-10 over Missouri in the third quarter, Tagovailoa took off on third down, but on the slide, it appeared that Tagovailoa’s cleat got caught in the grass.
The Alabama QB was checked out by the trainers, and came out of the game.

Jalen Hurts came into the game on the very next series for Alabama.
It’s worth noting that Tagovailoa had a sprained knee suffered last Saturday against Arkansas, but it as nothing serious.
