Maybe Cannon should heal up so he's good for the postseason. He has not been looking great.

In addition to his concussions and wearing a shoulder harness, he also twisted his ankle in this match.  I felt bad for the guy.

I think he disclocated his shoulder a few weeks ago, looked like he reinjured it in his last out against Michigan. I didn't think he'd finish the match.

Tough to watch.  He looked so beat up.

I have to admit I have not kept up with his current season, and came here to ask what was going on with Chris.  Knew him from club wrestling back in the day and was shocked his season was turning out like this.  I'll always root for the kid and it sucks that so many injuries are plaguing what should be the end of a very solid career.

After the ankle tape, he grimaced on his feet and looked at the coaches like “you serious?!?!” and he proceeds to walk it off.
