SCARY MOMENT FOR TARVARIS JACKSON
Vikings quarterback Tarvaris Jackson suffered a head injury while being tackled late in the first half of Sunday's game against the Chargers.
With the game tied 7-7 and the Vikings trying to score more points before intermission, Jackson pulled the ball down and ran. He initially didn't move after hitting the ground, with his right arm and hand fixed in an awkward position.
Eventually, he sat up and rode off on a cart. Brooks Bollinger replaced him.
On the first snap, Bollinger was sacked quickly. On the next snap, center Matt Birk sent the bail sailing over Bollinger's left shoulder as the quarterback was looking away. Though a penalty on the Chargers wiped it out the ensuing loss of yardage, a voice could be plainly heard yelling, "This ain't Eden Prairie High School!"
