Ole Miss WR Laquon Treadwell fractures leg against Auburn

Ole Miss receiver Laquon Treadwell suffered a gruesome leg injury late in the Rebels' loss to Auburn. "It's definitely a fracture," head coach Hugh Freeze said after the game, according to SI.com's Pete Thamel.

Treadwell caught a screen pass with 1:30 left to play and was pulled down from behind just as he was about to cross the goal line. The play was originally ruled a touchdown, appearing to give the Rebels the lead. The call was overturned after a video review and ruled a fumble, with a recovery by Auburn.
