Details on Oregon Football Players Hospitalized After Intense Workouts

Oregon StateThree Oregon Duck football players are currently being treated at a Portland area hospital after an especially intense workout.

According to Andrew Greif of The Oregonian offensive lineman Doug Brenner, offensive lineman Sam Poutasi and tight end Cam McCormick are all in fair condition but have been in the hospital since late last week.

Greif also shared a statement the school released on behalf of the athletic department:

The safety and welfare of all of our student-athletes is paramount in all that we do. While we cannot comment on the health of our individual students, we have implemented modifications as we transition back into full training to prevent further occurrences.

We thank our medical staff and trainers for their continued monitoring of the students and we will continue to support our young men as they recover.

Players reported elevated levels of creatine kinase, a symptom of rhabdomyolysis.

Poutasi’s mother said her son was diagnosed with rhabdomyolysis.
