BATON ROUGE, LA - Southern University wide receiver Devon Gales sustained a spinal injury during Saturday's game against the University of Georgia in Sanford Stadium.

On Sunday, Southern University released an update on his condition status, "Devon Gales underwent a successful spinal surgery Sunday afternoon. Gales suffered several fractures in his neck that were stabilized. He continue to have movement in his upper body and remains in good spirits and will remain at Athens Regional until he is released to return to Baton Rouge for further treatment."

The Gales family, along with Interim Athletics Director Roman Banks and the entire Southern University family are extremely thankful for all of the prayers and well wishes that Devon has received from many people nation wide. And asks for your continued prayers and thoughts for Devon and the entire Gales family during this difficult time. The family is also asking for privacy at this time.

"The HBCU Campaign Fund would like to send our prayers to a full recovery of wide receiver Devon Gales and our thoughts are with the Gales family, Jaguar football team, and the entire Southern University family during this difficult time." said in a statement to the Southern University from Demetrius Johnson Jr., President and Founder of HBCU Campaign Fund.
