Stanford lineman headed to ASU

Stanford offensive tackle Casey Tucker announced on Instagram that he will use his final year of eligibility as a graduate transfer at Arizona State.

A 6-foot-6, 300-pound native of Gilbert, Ariz., Tucker started all 14 games as a sophomore and eight as a junior but redshirted last season because the team had plenty of tackles and wanted him to learn to play guard. It’s not known which position he’ll play at ASU.

The 49ers’ Josh Garnett, a former linemate of Tucker with the Cardinal, tweeted: “Arizona State getting a GIFT having my man come home! Beyond excited to watch you ball man.”

Lindsey was in the hospital for three days, Owen for two. Head coach Scott Frost said both were treated for rhabdomyolysis, a potentially life-threatening condition in which muscle tissue breaks down and leaks into the blood.
