Tennessee football QB George MacIntyre leaves Texas A&M game after hard hit

Tennessee football quarterback George MacIntyre exited a Texas A&M game following a strong tackle by Aggies safety Chance Collins. The incident occurred in the third quarter, as MacIntyre attempted to pass the ball to Braylon Staley. Despite completing the throw, the ball bounced out of bounds. MacIntyre limped from the field with Tennessee punting on the following down.

He returned to the field for the next possession, but soon returned to the medical tent due to a right knee injury. MacIntyre wore a knee brace when he returned to the sidelines. He did not return to the game after that, and freshman quarterback Faizon Brandon took over for the next drive. Tennessee was trailing Texas A&M 7-6 at Kyle Field when MacIntyre left the game. He completed 13 of 17 passes for 109 yards before the injury.
