4 Missouri Football Players Injured in Car Accident
Four members of the Missouri Tigers football team suffered non-life-threatening injuries in a car accident Friday, according to the St. Louis Post-Dispatch's Dave Matter.
The university confirmed to the Columbia Daily Tribune's David Morrison that the players involved in the wreck were defensive lineman Terry Beckner Jr., wide receiver DeSean Blair, wide receiver Keyon Dilosa and running back Trevon Walters.
Blair, Dilosa and Walters are all redshirt freshmen, while Beckner is a true freshman who has recorded four tackles in his first two games for the Tigers. Beckner was driving the car, per Morrison, while the other three players were seated as passengers.
Accoding to Matter Beckner and Disola were treated and released at the scene of the accident, not hospitalized, as previously reported.
Morrison passed along a shot of head football coach Gary Pinkel examining the damage at the accident scene:
Matter reported that the team doesn't know if any of the players will be available for Saturday's home game against the Connecticut Huskies. The team won't determine their playing statuses until shortly before kickoff (noon ET) tomorrow.
