Blake Corum is one of the top running backs in the country in 2022. In fact, the Michigan star has played so well he is a legitimate Heisman Trophy contender.
But against Illinois on Saturday, he suffered a potentially serious knee injury in the second quarter of a tight game.
As you can see below, he was hit low over by the sideline during a run and immediately grabbed at his left knee, fumbling the ball in the process:

Corum was able to walk off the field, but went straight to the locker room for further evaluation:

Obviously, Michigan fans will be anxiously awaiting updates on Corum’s health. We’ll see what the news is after halftime. Michigan leads Illinois at the break 7-3.
