Dinson was injured on a blindside block by Texas A&M wide receiver Ricky Seals-Jones. Seals-Jones was called for targeting on the play, but the call was overturned after a review.
Going into Saturday’s game, Dinson, a freshman, had 12 tackles in eight games.
After the game, Auburn head coach Gus Malzahn wasn’t sure how serious Dinson’s injury was, but said things weren’t looking too good.
Malzahn says he doesn’t know the status of Jeremiah Dinson: “That’s tough. … It doesn’t look good, let’s put it that way.”
