While the extent of the injury is unknown, Sports Illustrated says that it happened in the late third quarter. With the little information we do know, we saw Chase outside the stadium post-game holding ice on his wrist/hand area.
It appears that he will be out for the season, although we’re also told that it hasn’t been confirmed quite yet that he’s officially done. That said, this is a major blow to the San Antonio Brahmas.
