**WVU News: QB Garrett Greene Suffers Career-Ending Injury in Weekend Game**
Morgantown, WV – In a devastating blow to the West Virginia University football team, quarterback Garrett Greene suffered a career-ending injury during Saturday’s game against the Kansas State Wildcats. Greene, who was in his junior year, was carted off the field in the second quarter with a severe knee injury.
The incident occurred when Greene was tackled to the ground after a short run play. As he got up to continue playing, he immediately fell to the ground, clutching his knee in agony. The team’s medical staff rushed to his side, and after a brief examination, it was determined that Greene had suffered a severe injury that would require surgery.
The exact nature of the injury has not been disclosed, but sources close to the team indicate that it is a serious one that will likely require a lengthy rehabilitation process. Greene’s college football career is likely over, and his future playing days are uncertain.
Greene was a key player for the Mountaineers, having started every game this season and leading the team in passing yards. He was also a fan favorite, known for his toughness and leadership on the field.
“It’s tough to see Garrett go down like that,” said West Virginia coach Neal Brown. “He’s been a huge part of our team’s success this season, and we’re going to miss him dearly. Our thoughts are with him and his family as he navigates this difficult time.”
The injury has left the Mountaineers reeling, as they prepare to face the remainder of their schedule without their starting quarterback. Redshirt freshman Garrett Snodgrass is expected to take over as the starting quarterback for the remainder of the season.
The loss of Greene is a significant blow to the team, but Brown expressed optimism that they can still have a successful season.
“We’re going to rally around each other and find ways to win,” Brown said. “We’ve got a lot of talented players on our roster, and we’re confident that we can still make a push for a bowl game.”
Greene’s injury serves as a reminder of the risks and uncertainties involved in playing college football. Despite his promising career being cut short, Greene remains an important part of the Mountaineers’ family and will be remembered for his contributions to the team.
