Nick Westbrook.

Indiana junior receiver Nick Westbrook will be out for the rest of the season.

Westbrook has suffered a torn ACL, IU coach Tom Allen said.

Westbrook suffered the injury on the opening kickoff of IU’s loss to No. 2 Ohio State on Thursday night at Memorial Stadium.

Last year, Westbrook caught 54 passes for 995 yards.

A 6-foot-3 215-pounder from Lake Mary, Fla., Westbrook would be eligible for a redshirt year.

It’s the second year in a row IU has lost a receiver to a season-ending injury early in the season.

Last year, Simmie Cobbs was hurt on his first play from scrimmage, which came in IU’s second game.
