Tennessee State University football player Christion Abercrombie continues to make progress more than a month after his injury. 

His mother, Staci Abercrombie, posted an update on Twitter, saying Christion has eaten his first meal by mouth since he was injured. 

The Tigers player collapsed on the sideline during the TSU-Vanderbilt game on September 29. 

He was later transferred to a hospital in Atlanta that specializes in brain injuries.  

His mother has been providing updates on social media, saying “God is working a miracle.” She said Christion is also now able to wave his hand, tell time and even gave her a hug when prompted.
