So how the hell did he manage to pass a physical and be allowed to play football?

Cincinnati safety Kyriq McDonald collapsed and appeared to go into convulsions in the middle of a play during the second quarter against Ohio State on Saturday in Columbus, Ohio.

The majority of the Bearcats’ team gathered near midfield around the 6-foot, 202-pound McDonald, who remained on the turf for nearly five minutes while receiving attention from both Cincinnati and Ohio State medical personnel.

McDonald’s mother told ABC/ESPN field reporter Allison Williams in the tunnel that her son has a history of seizures, including one on the sideline while enrolled at Alabama during the national championship game in 2018.
