Utah defensive end Koa Misi left Wednesday evening's practice on a golf cart after being injured during a light contact drill with offensive lineman Zane Beadles.

Initial reports said Misi suffered only a back spasm, but head coach Kyle Whittingham declined to elaborate further. More details were expected later tonight.

Misi, a senior returning starter, was selected to the Mountain West Conference preseason all-league team.
