Justin Fields returns after knee injury to throw touchdown pass

Ohio State quarterback Justin Fields suffered a significant-looking injury in the third quarter of Saturday’s game against Michigan, but it turned out to be nothing.

Fields went down with 7:44 remaining in the third quarter after taking a hit to his lower left leg. It appeared that one of his own players was blocked into him.

Fields ultimately got up and left the field with a pronounced limp as he headed to the medical tent.

Fields was replaced by backup quarterback Chris Chugunov. After missing a few plays, Fields re-entered the game and immediately threw a touchdown pass to Garrett Wilson to make it 42-16.

Fields, a sophomore, is having a dominant season for Ohio State with 35 passing touchdowns and just one interception. He suffered an injury scare last week, but this one appeared much more significant at first glimpse.
