Wisconsin quarterback Tyler Van Dyke suffered a right knee injury Saturday that will keep him out for the rest of the season, the Wisconsin State Journal reported Monday.
Van Dyke, a fifth-year senior who transferred from Miami, was hurt on a third-down scramble on the seventh play of the game during the Badgers’ 42-10 loss to visiting Alabama.
After a visit to the medical tent, Van Dyke was carted to the locker room and reappeared during the second half with crutches and a knee brace.
Braedyn Locke played the rest of the game and figures to be the No. 1 quarterback for Wisconsin going forward.
Van Dyke completed 43 of 68 passes for 422 yards and one touchdown while adding a rushing touchdown in parts of three games this season. In four years at Miami, Van Dyke threw for 7,469 yards, 54 touchdowns and 23 interceptions over 32 games.
