KD Hill, a former Ole Miss defensive lineman, suffered serious injuries in a recent car accident, according to multiple reports.
Ole Miss has not directly confirmed any details, but the football program shared a message of support for Hill on Saturday evening:

Eufala High School, Hill’s alma mater, shared a link to a GoFundMe in support of Hill’s medical expenses on Sunday.
Last August, Hill received the Chucky Mullins Courage Award from Ole Miss. The award honors Mullins, a former Ole Miss player who was paralyzed during a game back in 1989. It comes with the honor of wearing the No. 38 jersey throughout the following season.
Here’s video that Ole Miss shared last August of Hill informing his mother of the award:
