EAST HARTFORD, Conn. (AP) — North Carolina State safety Rakeim Ashford was injured and taken off the field on a stretcher Thursday night during the third quarter of the Wolfpack's season opener against UConn.
Ashford’s condition was not immediately known.
Ashford was hit on the North Carolina State sideline at the end of a 40-yard kickoff return by NC State's Julian Gray with 1:54 left in the quarter. He went down and lay motionless for about 10 minutes as both teams knelt and watched emergency crews work on him.
A cart was brough onto the field, but not used. Ashford was eventually strapped to a stretcher and wheeled off the field.
UConn's Isiah Davis was called for unnecessary roughness on the play.
The Wolfpack went on to score a touchdown on the ensuing drive to take a 24-14 lead.
