Injured Beloit Football Player Returns Home

(AP) – A 16-year-old north-central Kansas high school football player who collapsed during a game has returned home after weeks at a rehabilitation facility.

Beloit High School sophomore Jadon Adams returned home Friday. Adams collapsed during a football game October 7. The Salina Journal reports that doctors have not determined what led to Adams’ injury.

Beloit nurse Steph Barrett said Adams attended a high school basketball game with his family Friday night. She said Adams has been undergoing therapy at a rehabilitation hospital in Lincoln, Neb., since Oct. 21. Before that he was hospitalized in Wichita.

Barrett said Adams’ therapy will continue at home, and a retired teacher will be tutoring him at home for a while.

Adams is a two-way starter and the leading rusher for Beloit.
