Toby Bourguet, who runs Tucson Turf, a top youth 7-on-7 football program in the nation and is close to the family, provided an update on Roebuck's medical condition on Facebook, sharing what the Roebuck family gave him on Monday, Aug. 10.
"He is being taken care of by an amazing team of doctors and nurses, and we are so grateful for them," Bourguet wrote. "The spine doctor came in and said he is not concerned about the C7 fracture and no surgery is needed. His broken collarbone will just need a splint. His lungs look great. He does have 2 broken ribs and lots of scrapes on his right side.
"He will need plastic surgery to repair the fractured right eye socket, and he also has a broken jaw. He has a small laceration on his liver that they are watching. He will remain sedated and intubated for a little while longer. We don’t have a concrete timeline yet for when they will wake him up and remove the breathing tube."
Bourguet added that the Roebucks are thankful for every prayer, text and call and love shown to the family. He also stated on his social-media post to pray for Sean and for the doctors as they make decisions about the next steps.
Details about the accident were not immediately available.
Roebuck led Marana to the 5A football playoffs last year with 89 catches for 1,076 yards and eight touchdowns.
The high school football community showed an outpouring of support for Roebuck and his family on social media. His father, Sean Sr., is an assistant coach with the school's flag football team.
Sean Roebuck Jr. is the brother of University of Washington wide receiver Dezmen Roebuck, who was The Arizona Republic's Offensive Player of the Year in the 2024 season, after he led the Tigers to the No. 1 ranking in the Open Division with 95 catches for 1,131 yards and 14 TDs.
