Arkansas WR Jalen Brown exits Notre Dame game with leg injury

Arkansas wide receiver Jalen Brown suffered a serious leg injury during the third quarter of the Razorbacks' game against Notre Dame, forcing him to be carted off the field. Brown was attempting to catch a touchdown pass from quarterback Taylen Green when he landed awkwardly on his left leg, leading to immediate medical attention and transport to a nearby hospital for X-rays. The injury is a significant blow to Arkansas, as Brown had been a key player this season with 12 catches for 167 yards and two touchdowns. His absence is expected to increase playing time for other receivers like CJ Brown, Raylen Sharpe, and Andy Jean. The incident was emotionally impactful for teammates and fans, highlighting Brown's role as a valued member of the team. Meanwhile, Kansas State's leading receiver Jayce Brown also left his game against UCF early in the first quarter with an unspecified injury, though he was seen walking on the sidelines later without clear information on the severity.
