ATLANTA -- Alabama reserve defensive back Kyriq McDonald collapsed on the Crimson Tide sideline during the College Football Playoff National Championship Presented by AT&T in Atlanta on Monday night.
A stretcher was brought over to take him to the locker room to be evaluated. ESPN sideline reporter Tom Rinaldi reported that McDonald regained consciousness and was alert and awake.
McDonald, a freshman from Madison, Alabama, has not seen action this season.
An Alabama spokesman described it as a "non-athletic medical issue."
