A Utah teenager is in the intensive care unit at Primary Children's Hospital after a severe injury to his spinal cord during a high school football game.
SALT LAKE CITY — A Utah teenager is in the intensive care unit at Primary Children's Hospital after a severe injury to his cervical spinal cord during a high school football game last week.
He underwent surgery and has since regained feeling in his feet, hands, arms and abdomen, and he has some movement in his right arm, according to his family. "From the stands, you could hear it more than you could see it. It was kind of in a little bit of a scrum," said Tyson Forbes, a neighbor and family friend of Sutton's."Jalen plays fast and free. He does not hold anything back. He went in for a tackle — it actually was a great tackle, but the other kid was coming hard too."
