Baylor quarterback DJ Lagway suffers ankle injury against Auburn
Summary

Baylor quarterback DJ Lagway sustained an ankle injury during the first half of the game against Auburn. After hobbling off the field following a failed conversion, Lagway returned to action with his right ankle heavily taped. He continued to demonstrate limited mobility, frequently limping between plays and requiring assistance from teammates to enter the locker room tunnel. Despite the injury, Lagway remained in the game and successfully threw a 14-yard touchdown pass to Louis Brown IV. Officials ruled a previous scoring attempt to Jadon Porter an incompletion. The exact nature and severity of the injury remain undisclosed as the game continues.
