Miami Dolphins’ Grant DuBose Taken to Hospital With a Head Injury After Terrifying Tackle
Grant Dubose is on the mend.
The Miami Dolphins’ provided an update on the wide receiver after he was rushed to the hospital following a helmet-to-helmet hit during the team’s game against the Houston Texans Dec. 15.
“After sustaining a head injury in yesterday’s game, Grant DuBose remained at a local Houston hospital for evaluation overnight,” the Dolphins said in a Dec. 16 statement, per NBC News. “He has movement in all extremities and initial tests have revealed positive results. He remains under the care of doctors for continued observation.”
Indeed, DuBose, 23, remained behind in Houston following his injury—which occurred during the third quarter when he collided with Texans safety Calen Bullock.
As for when the University of North Carolina alum will be able to return to Florida?
“We’ll be excited to see him when doctors deem it appropriate for him to fly,” Dolphins coach Mike McDaniel said during a Dec. 16 press conference, per NBC News, “I’d also like to commend the collective training staffs—both ours and the Texans’ and the doctors involved for handling a situation as they did. It was imperative for him.”
