Former University of Hawaii quarterback Colt Brennan was hospitalized today in Kona with possible head injuries after being involved in a two-car accident on the Big Island, according to Hawaii county police.
Police confirmed this afternoon that Brennan was a passenger in an SUV driven by Shakti Stream, 27, of Kona. It was traveling north on Queen Kaahumanu Highway near the 90-mile marker at about 9:30 a.m. It crossed the centerline and collided head-on with a Saab sedan.
A fire department official at the scene said Brennan was stuck in the vehicle and that Stream had managed to crawl out. Both were taken to Kona Community Hospital in serious condition. The driver of the Saab, a 47-year-old Waikoloa woman whose identity the police did not release, was taken to North Kohala also in serious condition.
About three hours ago, Brennan's father, Terry Brennan, said he had just heard about the accident from his wife, Betsy, and had no information.
"I'm making some calls right now," he said.
Brennan has been spending time on the Big Island after being released by the Oakland Raiders this summer. Last month, he had an exploratory workout with the Houston Texans.
Brennan, a record-setting quarterback for the Warriors, was drafted in the sixth round by the Washington Redskins in the 2008 National Football League Draft.
After undergoing four surgeries, he was released by the Redskins before the start of training camp this summer.
