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.
