Louisiana football’s quarterback Chandler Fields was sidelined with an injury during the second quarter of the Sun Belt Conference championship game against Marshall. The 5-foot-10 signal caller was injured after taking a hit from a Marshall defender while trying to pick up a first down on a third-and-12 play. Fields did not return to the game and his backup, freshman Daniel Beale, took over for the remainder of the game.
Fields is the second UL quarterback to go down with an injury this season, with starting quarterback Ben Wooldridge also out since November. The Cajuns will have to rely on their second backup quarterback to finish the championship game. More information on Fields’ injury and potential return will be updated as it becomes available.
The game is being closely watched by fans and sports enthusiasts, with updates on the score and highlights being shared live on various platforms.
