Wisconsin quarterback Tyler Van Dyke was seen on crutches on the sideline of his team’s game against Alabama on Saturday after he suffered an injury in the first quarter.

Van Dyke tried to scramble for a first down on a 3rd-and-7 play four minutes into the game. As he neared the sideline, he was tackled and got hurt. Van Dyke grabbed his right knee immediately and was removed from the game.

The flag on the play was for defensive holding, which helped move the Badgers into field goal range.

Braedyn Locke entered the game in place of Van Dyke, and Wisconsin finished off the drive with a field goal.

Van Dyke is a transfer from Miami and is in his first season with Wisconsin. He was 5-of-5 for 15 yards before getting hurt.
