WELLBORN — Weaver quarterback was airlifted from the field during Wellborn’s 30-8 victory over the Bearcats on Friday, Weaver coach Ken Cofer confirms.

When asked Gooden’s condition, Cofer said he did not know, but Cofer confirmed that Gooden was moving limbs and extremities.

The game ended with 25.7 seconds to play.

A late post to the Weaver High School Football Facebook page provided an “update on Kaden.”

“He’s good!” the post read. “He’s been cleared, and they are about to send him home!”

Prior to that update, Wellborn coach Jeff Smith put Gooden’s injury scare into perspective.

“I’m just praying that he’s OK,” Smith said. “Very unfortunate. I hate that. It’s a good win for us, but it’s dampered because of an injury to another player,

“Football is just a game. We don’t want anybody to get injured out of it.”

Wellborn pulled away after the teams went into halftime tied 8-8.

“I’m happy we’re 2-0, but we have long ways to go,” Smith said. “We have a lot of things to fix.”
