Georgia's defensive tackle Jalen Carter was seen injured midway through the third quarter of the national championship game. 

He went down following a running play where he was involved in the tackle. Carter was having his lower body examined by team doctors on the field. 

Reports are that he was seen walking gingerly off the field on his own power. 

We will keep you updated on this storyline as further information comes in. 

UPDATE: Looks to have been a sign of gamesmanship by the Georgia defense, as Carter is back in the rotation for the bulldogs.
