Colorado QB Julian Lewis Hospitalized After Suffering Medical Emergency

Julian Lewis is in his second season with Colorado and started the first four games for this year.

Colorado quarterback Julian Lewis recently had a health scare, requiring him to be hospitalized on Wednesday after experiencing a medical emergency at the University of Colorado. The 20-year-old sophomore, who was not the team's starting quarterback at the time, was immediately taken to the hospital following the incident. His father confirmed the event, expressing gratitude for the support from medical staff, teammates, and fans.

Lewis had a relatively quiet second season with the Buffaloes, serving as a backup before taking over as the starter for the current campaign. Although he was a highly touted recruit last year, Lewis has encountered some struggles this season, leading head coach Deion Sanders to reevaluate his starting lineup.

Following his hospitalization, Lewis is currently in recovery, with the team listing him as doubtful to play in Saturday's game against Kansas State. While the specific nature of his health issue remains undisclosed, it was deemed serious enough for medical attention. The Buffaloes have not specified whether the emergency was related to football activities.
