Cincinnati quarterback Munchie Legaux suffered a horrific leg injury in the Bear Cats’ loss to Illinois Saturday afternoon.
The injury came in the fourth quarter when Legaux dropped back to pass on third down. After delivering the throw Legaux was tackled below the knees by Illinois defensive lineman Tim Kynard, causing his knee to bend in a direction it’s not suppose to bend.
UC release on Munchie Legaux says the QB will remain hospitalized overnight for what's only being described as a lower-leg injury.
