UCF QB Tayven Jackson (upper body) injured vs. Kansas State
UCF Knights quarterback Tayven Jackson (2) hands the ball off to UCF Knights wide receiver Duane Thomas Jr. (7) during the first half of the game against Kansas State Wildcats at Bill Snyder Family Stadium on Sept. 27, 2025. UCF quarterback Tayven Jackson suffered an upper body injury against Kansas State on Saturday, forcing him from the game.
Early in the second quarter, Jackson was hit after releasing the ball by Wildcats defensive end Cody Stufflebean, landing hard on the turf in Manhattan, Kan.
Jackson was attended to by medical staff and went to the locker room without his pads. He eventually returned to the sideline with his left arm in a sling wearing warmups.
The former Tennessee and Indiana signal-caller played a big role in the Knights' 3-0 start, completing 70.1 percent of his passes for 694 yards and three touchdowns, to go along with 72 yards and three touchdowns on the ground.
Jackson was 5-of-9 passing for 18 yards against the Wildcats before being replaced by Jacurri Brown.
