Ohio State running back Trey Sermon has had a monster stretch for the Buckeyes, and he's needed in a big way if the Buckeyes are going to beat the Crimson Tide on Monday night.

But in the opening three minutes of the game, during Ohio State's first drive of the night, Sermon appeared to get injured.

ESPN's Maria Taylor is reporting that Sermon is being evaluated for a left shoulder injury. His ability to return is unknown. Master Teague took his place when Sermon left the field.
