Green DNA Posted April 23, 2006 Share Posted April 23, 2006 This is no small accident if he was thrown from the car, hasn't he heard of seatbelts? If he may not be ready for training camp in 2 1/2 months then he must have some kind of major injury. We may looking at Kellen Winslow type damage here. I think a RB may just have moved up the priority list for next week's draft. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maxman Posted April 23, 2006 Share Posted April 23, 2006 He was thrown from the car (meaning he wasn't wearing a seat belt) He was not admitted overnight to the hospital. He might miss the beginning of training camp? Something does not add up here. What exactly is his injury? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maynardrules#13 Posted April 23, 2006 Share Posted April 23, 2006 He should use seat belts, thank god nothing worse happened to him and he is ok. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Savage69 Posted April 23, 2006 Share Posted April 23, 2006 If that was Martin thrown from the Car in 98 he would have traveled only 3.5 yd's...Of course as a Pat in 96 he would have traveled 1/10 farther.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cyberjet Posted April 23, 2006 Share Posted April 23, 2006 He was thrown from the car (meaning he wasn't wearing a seat belt) He was not admitted overnight to the hospital. He might miss the beginning of training camp? Something does not add up here. What exactly is his injury? Given the fact that he wasn't held overnight one could rule out a head, neck injury, or serious concussion. Most probably he landed on his shoulder so things like a clavicle fx, AC joint subluxation/dislocation, rotator cuff tear, or a 'stinger' are high on the list. If he's lucky maybe he just was roughed up a bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brenjetsfan Posted April 23, 2006 Share Posted April 23, 2006 NFL.com wire reports KNOXVILLE, Tenn. (April 23, 2006) -- New York Jets running back Cedric Houston was injured in a one-car accident late Friday night. He was taken to the University of Tennessee Medical Center where he was treated for injuries that were not considered life threatening and released. The former Tennessee standout was a passenger in a car that went up an embankment on a rural stretch of Interstate 40, about 50 miles west of Knoxville, and hit a tree stump, Tennessee Highway Patrol officials told Knoxville television station WATE. Charges were not immediately filed against the driver. The Jets would not comment on Houston's injuries because he has yet to be examined by a team doctor.

PeterNorth09 Posted April 23, 2006 Share Posted April 23, 2006 I feel bad for Houston but at the same time I think those of you who said we didn't need a RB before are now officially without an answer. We need to get a running back in this year's draft and no scrubs please. I vote for Chauncey Billups's cousin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
