Alabama's Kenyan Drake carted off field with gruesome leg injury

Alabama running back Kenyan Drake suffered a gruesome leg injury in Saturday's game against Ole Miss.

After catching a screen pass, Drake ran for a 10-yard gain and was hit by multiple defenders, getting his leg caught awkwardly under one of them.

Drake was carted off the field with what was clearly a serious injury, though he did give the thumbs up to the crowd as he left the field. 

The junior's usage hasn't climbed as much as many thought it would this season, but he's still managed to rack up six touchdowns through the first four games of the 2014 season on only 26 touches.

Drake's absence will mean additional work for the likes of T.J. Yeldon and his backfield mates.
