I hope he will be OK; football aside. I don't light seeing anyone get potentially seriously hurt during a game. The Dennis Bird trajedy is still in my memory banks. Even though the guy fought like anything to walk again, it still does not minimize what happened.
I went to walk the dogs when that happened, and was unaware of it. Then when the late news was on, I caught the very last second, and didn't catch know who it was. Ugh, stuff like that makes my blood run cold, how someone's life can be taken or altered forever just like that. Encouraging news for sure. Get well soon.
The sad part is, that's probably his last play of his career... Hopefully, he fully recovers and can lead a decent life.
