Yikes hope this man isn't seriously hurt. That has to be super scary.

“We really don’t know all the details now,” Cowboys executive vice president Stephen Jones said immediately after practice. “Obviously, we’re hoping for the best. It’s just too early to say.”
Jones said the Cowboys are still evaluating the tape from the play in question, but it appeared Boatright collided with left tackle Tyron Smithduring the action.
“We were in an over front, and they ran a scoop block. I think the tackle hit his neck – kind of like a whiplash or whatnot,” saidJeremy Mincey. “I don’t know what’s going on, I don’t know the details. I just remember seeing him laying on the ground. We’re going to pray for him and his family and hope he heals up.”
Associate trainer Greg Gaither accompanied the defensive end to the hospital.

Damn with the injuries. We need to stay healthy

Unfortunately, there are two indisputable rules of sports:

1. Athletes get hurt
2. You can't change rule #1

We do everything we can to reduce risks and prevent injuries, but they'll always be there.

My first thought was that's kinda cold but it was quickly forgotten once... I... looked... down... and... saw... sig... pic...

LOL Nah I didn't mean it in any kind of way, that's disrespectful.

All in All, I hope dude makes a full recovery.

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.

Well put :bow:

Hopefully just a stinger. I got one falling out of a bunk bed once.

Stop laughing.
In a perfect world, yea, but I've had a number of stingers and you can still walk off the field.
