Michigan Teen Suffers Spinal Fractures in Devastating High School Football Hit<\/strong><\/p>\n

A Michigan high school football game took a frightening turn when 15-year-old Colton Mims suffered serious spinal injuries during a junior varsity matchup between Lakeshore and Kalamazoo Central.<\/p>\n

Colton was crushed under the full weight of a much larger opposing player\u2014not once, but twice\u2014during a tackle that left fans stunned. Video of the incident quickly spread online, showing the brutal hit that sidelined the Kalamazoo Central sophomore for the season and potentially longer.<\/p>\n

\u201cAs soon as it clicked that it was my son, I had to go down there,\u201d said his mother, Courtney Mims. \u201cI\u2019ve never been as upset or shaken up.\u201d<\/p>\n

Colton was rushed to the hospital, where doctors diagnosed him with two spinal fractures. He\u2019s now on muscle relaxers and under close medical supervision.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe\u2019s out at least for this season. We don\u2019t know if he\u2019ll ever be able to play again,\u201d Courtney said. \u201cThis game means everything to him\u2014it\u2019s his whole life right now.\u201d<\/p>\n

Calling the incident \u201cunacceptable,\u201d she added, \u201cMy kid could have been paralyzed. He can barely walk right now.\u201d<\/p>\n

The school district has not yet commented. Meanwhile, Colton\u2019s future in football remains uncertain.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
