Michigan Wolverines defensive lineman Chase Winovich suffered a potentially serious injury Saturday against Indiana.
Winovich was blocked to the ground and then fallen on, seemingly intentionally, by Indiana offensive lineman Simon Stepaniak. Winovich stayed down for quite a while before immediately departing to the locker room.

Winovich has four sacks on the season. He’s also become an outspoken leader and the emotional heart of the Michigan defense. It’s unclear how severe the injury will turn out to be, but with Ohio State looming in a week, the Wolverines can scarcely afford to lose him.
