Injury to JJ Arcega-Whiteside a blow to Stanford offense
SEATTLE — Stanford wide receiver JJ Arcega-Whiteside had to be helped off the field Saturday night after an apparent injury to his right knee in the second quarter at Husky Stadium.
He didn’t return, a severe blow to the Cardinal offense in a 27-23 loss to Washington. There was no immediate word on the severity of his injury.
Arcega-Whiteside had just caught a pass for 11 yards when he was hit by Huskies cornerback Byron Murphy. It was Arcega-Whiteside’s only reception of the night.
Earlier in the second quarter Arcega-Whiteside drew a pass interference call against Keith Taylor. It was the 14th penalty the 6-foot-3, 225-pound receiver has drawn this season — 12 pass interference and two holding calls for 190 penalty yards.
