Baylor kicker Chris Callahan wants everyone to know he’s OK.
Callahan took a vicious hit while trying to make a tackle following a blocked field goal by Michigan State late in the fourth quarter of Thursday’s Cotton Bowl.
Callahan was blindsided and, by the way his body fell to the turf, appeared to be knocked unconscious.
However, Callahan took to Twitter after the game to let everyone know that he was “alive.”
I am alive. It has been a great season. I am proud to be a Baylor Bear. #SicEm
— Christopher Callahan (@chrispcallahan2) January 1, 2015 While Callahan’s tweet is pretty funny, there was genuine concern for his wellbeing that was slightly lost in the commotion and excitement of the blocked kick. Cameras never even went back to him because the Michigan State offense was on the field so quickly and the drive was so crucial to the outcome of the game.
So, it’s good to know Callahan emerged unscathed from what was truly one of the more devastating hits we’ve seen all season.
