  "account": "Michigan State's backup quarterback, Cam Fancher, suffered a right knee injury during a game against Wisconsin on October 30, 2022. Fancher was playing at quarterback for the Spartans in the second half when he limped off the field in the third quarter. It appeared that his knee went out without making contact with another player. Following the game, Fancher was examined by the training staff and was seen limping off the field without his helmet and a wrapped knee. He then received treatment in the injury tent, which indicated the end of his participation in the game. This news is particularly concerning for Michigan State, as the team had already been struggling with injuries entering the Wisconsin game. Linebacker Jordan Hall was listed as doubtful, along with starter Brady Pretzlaff, and backup linebackers Dion Crawford and Cam Stodghill were also questionable for the upcoming matchup against the Badgers. Running back Cam Edwards has been ruled out for the remainder of the season after injuring his knee earlier in the season. Cornerback Tyran Chappell, who was previously questionable, is now listed as out after sustaining an injury against Nebraska.",
