WATCH: Oklahoma cornerback Damond Harmon carted off field after injury vs. TCU
Oklahoma sophomore cornerback Damond Harmon was carted off the field midway through the fourth quarter against TCU after apparently injuring his head and/or neck on a first down play. His head and neck snapped back while making a tackle.
The second-year Sooner remained down on the field for an extended period before being stabilized on a rigid board and loaded on to a stretcher and the cart. On the broadcast, and as noted by reporters, Harmon’s arm was moving and he appeared to be conscious and alert.
Robert Griffin III, on the call for ABC, tweeted a picture of the somber scene as Harmon remained down. Both teams had come out to around midfield and were standing in solitude with the injured player.

Afterward, Hodge was distraught on the sidelines, almost brought to tears with a towel draped covering his head. He immediately regretted the hit, wishing to take it all back in a moment’s notice. Gabriel was able to walk off the field under his own power.
Gabriel was replaced with backup quarterback Davis Beville entered the game. Relying on the Sooners’ ground game, Oklahoma scored on the same drive, via Jovantae Barnes taking a 20-yard rush to the house.
Oklahoma trailed 34-17 at the time of the injury and looked to make an improbable comeback against TCU.
