Not sure if this is posted but he broke his kneck during the Rutgers game, and per ESPN, he had emergency surgery to stabilize his spine and is paralysed from the kneck down.

Hate this when it happens. T's and P's with him and his family. Hope he can make a full recovery.

Always sad when something like this happens. Kind of puts things in perspective.

Football is a violent sport. For all the action that takes place we should be glad that this kind of thing doesn't happen more often. I hope nothing but the best for Eric and pray for a full recovery.

I had heard about it, but not seen the video until now...my thoughts and prayers go out to him and his family.
