DE Kenneth Boatright had to be carted off field and went into an ambulance with a potential neck injury. Stephen Jones went to field.

I bet it was during the pass rush drill where two guys are rushing against a tackle and guard combo.

It wouldn't be the first time that two DL collided while making a beeline for the QB.

It happened with the NY Jets (Dennis Byrd running into Scott Mersereau ) when the QB stepped up in the pocket and the two DL collided into one another where the QB had just been.

What's it going to be then, eh?

I know it's part of the game, but damn, I hate to hear this. I hope the person is ok and the player gets back on the field soon.

Good point. No player needs a career ended like this. And if so, it is not something that impacts him permanently.

This is just football, he has a long life ahead of him. Really puts things in perspective.

any HINT of neck injury and the medics are required to completely immobilize that area. So most of the time its not serious.
