A college football game was brought to a standstill for nearly an hour after Southern Nazarene University safety Tyler Ulrich suffered a traumatic on-field injury. Five days later, the 21-year-old was dead, leaving his teammates and university community mourning as questions remain about the circumstances of his final game.
Ulrich died in hospital on Thursday, 15 October, following the injury sustained during Saturday's game against Ouachita Baptist in Oklahoma. Southern Nazarene confirmed his death but has not disclosed an official cause of death.
