The Texas A&M Aggies entered Saturday night’s game against the Notre Dame Fighting Irish as the No. 16 ranked team in the country. Notre Dame, on the other hand, is ranked No. 8 in the nation.
Both teams are viewed as potential College Football Playoff contenders. However, a win tonight would mean a big step in the right direction for those hopes.
Close to the end of the first half, a scary situation unfolded. Texas A&M safety Bryce Anderson was involved in a tackle and went down motionless.

It didn’t take long for a cart to come out for him and he also had his helmet removed and was placed in a neck brace.
Here is a video of the play for those who didn’t see it happen:
While the play was terrifying and watching Anderson lie on the ground was even more scary, the Aggies’ defender did give a thumbs up sign on his way off of the field.
Coming into the game, Anderson had played a key role for the Texas A&M defense. In the first two games of the season, he had recorded six total tackles.
Last season, he ended up with 24 tackles, an interception, and a defensive touchdown, while in 2023 he recorded 55 tackles, 1.5 sacks, a forced fumble, an interception, and four defended passes.
Hopefully, the injury is not as serious as it appeared to be on the field. Anderson being taken off the field in a neck brace was concerning, but it could have been a precaution. For now, no further details are known about his status.
