Ridley was seen entering the medical tent during Sunday's game, but upon exiting, he collapsed to the ground and had to be carted to the locker room, according to the Field Level Media. He was subsequently ruled out with an abdominal injury.

The 24-year-old had been enjoying a solid sophomore season in which he tallied 63 catches for 866 yards and seven touchdowns.
