Dante Moore injury update: Oregon QB carted off after massive hit to the head

Dante Moore, the quarterback for Oregon, was injured during a critical game against USC when he was hit by USC's Desman Stephens II. The impact was so severe that Moore was immediately taken off the field on a stretcher with a brace around his neck. The incident sparked a near-scuffle between the two teams as Moore's Ducks teammates rushed to protect him.

Although targeting was not called initially, Stephens was ejected after a review. Moore was treated on the field for several minutes before being transported to an ambulance near the end zone. Fortunately, cameras confirmed that Moore was able to move his arms, fingers, and feet during the process.
