Jahvid Best, a California star tailback was released from the hospital Sunday and will miss at least one game after sustaining a concussion on a terrifying fall in the end zone. Best spent the night at Highland General Hospital in Oakland for observation and tests after landing on the back of his head in the end zone and being briefly knocked unconscious in the Golden Bears’ 31-14 loss to Oregon State on Saturday night.

Jahvid Best sustained a concussion and was taken to the emergency room after he leapt high into the air, flipped over a defender and landed on the back of his head in the end zone. Best briefly lost consciousness following the terrifying fall from at least 5 feet, coach Jeff Tedford said after No. 23 Cal’s 31-14 loss to Oregon State.

Tedford said initial tests had come back normal. “We are relieved and thankful that Jahvid has been released from the hospital and that his CT scans and X-rays have come back normal,” coach Jeff Tedford said Sunday.

Best was hurt on a 7-yard touchdown run in the second quarter. He vaulted into the air over Oregon State safety Cameron Collins and fell on the back of his head from at least 5 feet. His helmet came off on impact and he briefly lost consciousness. Best’s jersey was removed and he was wearing an oxygen mask when carted out of the stadium.

His teammates went down on their knees and waited, then moved to the end zone as trainers and doctors took him away on a stretcher to go to the emergency room.

“I was scared for him,” Cal cornerback Syd’Quan Thompson said after the game. “He fell so awkwardly and he just laid there. I said a prayer for him and his family.”
