WSU's Connor Halliday Sends out Heartbreaking Tweet After Breaking Leg

Washington State quarterback Connor Halliday has dedicated his entire life to making it to the NFL, but the fifth-year senior's hopes of being selected in the 2015 NFL draft took a serious blow this past weekend.

Halliday broke his leg in the first quarter of Saturday's game against USC, which not only ended his season but also his career at Washington State.

In 2014, Halliday was leading the nation in passing yards (3,873) and passing touchdowns (32). He finished his career with 11,308 yards, 90 touchdowns and 50 interceptions.

The 6'4", 201-pound signal-caller has put together plenty of film for NFL scouts to dissect, but he knows that he may not be able to recover in time to work out for teams in person before the draft arrives.

Check out this heartbreaking tweet that Halliday sent out on Sunday:

It's tough not to feel for a player who has worked so hard to get an opportunity to realize his dream only for something to go horribly wrong at the last minute.

Halliday has a long road ahead of him, but hopefully some NFL franchise will give him a chance to show what he's capable of once he recovers from this devastating injury.
