Dylan Raiola has not looked sharp against Indiana with Nebraska struggling to keep up in Week 8. T0 make matters worse, Raiola appeared to hurt himself late in the first half.

Facing a 3rd-and-long, Raiola was off-target on his pass and went down in pain. He was seen on the turf for a moment before getting up and walking off under his own power but with a clear limp.

Here’s what it looked like on the FOX broadcast:

The good news is Raiola was right back out on the ensuing possession. According to sideline reporter Jenny Taft, Raiola shook things off and was ready to roll after that.

“He basically took about 2 seconds to shake out his right ankle and was immediately back to watching film,” Taft reported on the broadcast.

While Raiola did return to action, he also appeared to still be favoring his ankle while walking off the field after a short drive and punt for the Huskers. With the game hitting halftime, and Nebraska currently in a major deficit, it will be something to monitor when the teams come out for the second half.

So far, Raiola is 14-for-21 for 104 yards, but he has been outclassed by veteran IU QB Kurtis Rourke in the first half.
