Missouri QB Brady Cook Suffers Injury vs. Alabama, Throws for 131 Yards and 1 TD
Missouri quarterback Brady Cook left Saturday's game against Alabama in the second quarter after suffering an injury. Cook, who had been a key player in the Tigers' upset bid, was replaced by backup Jack Abraham.
The injury occurred during a play in which Cook attempted to scramble for a first down. He was hit by several Alabama defenders and appeared to be in pain. After being examined on the sideline, Cook was ruled out for the remainder of the game.
Despite the injury, Cook had a solid start to the game, throwing for 131 yards and a touchdown before exiting. He connected with tight end Logan Cook for a 6-yard touchdown in the first quarter, giving Missouri an early 7-0 lead.
However, the Tigers were unable to sustain their offensive momentum after Cook's departure. Abraham struggled to gain traction against a tough Alabama defense, and Missouri ultimately fell to the Crimson Tide by a score of 42-14.
The extent of Cook's injury remains unclear at this time. The Tigers will be hoping for a speedy recovery from their starting quarterback as they prepare for their upcoming matchup against Middle Tennessee.
Cook's absence will be a significant blow to Missouri's offensive plans. He has been a reliable leader and playmaker for the Tigers this season. His status for next week's game will be a major storyline to follow as the Tigers look to bounce back from their loss to Alabama.
