A Texas trooper who confronted South Carolina's Nyck Harbor after the player's touchdown on Saturday was sent home from the game, according to the state's Department of Public Safety.

Harbor scored on an 80-yard reception in the second quarter and entered the tunnel after the score, appearing to walk off a leg injury. As he and three of his teammates, including running back Oscar Adaway III, were walking back to the field, the trooper walked in between Harbor and Adaway and bumped into them.
