    And the way Miles said it in the post-game presser, I think he views it as a purposeful chop block that was not called. As in - the two linemen intended to chop him.

    That would be terrible. Even when he came back to the sidelines, he never put weight on that leg. Doesn't bode very well for him. I hope he has a speedy and complete recovery.

    It wasn't a lineman that hit him low, it was the RB out of the backfield. I don't know what the rule is about RBs doing that, but the lineman clearly had him engaged high when the RB chopped him low.

    Anyone heard anything about the severity of the injury? Or how long he will be out?

    I read somewhere he is out for the rest of the season, torn knee ligament.

    Quite a shame, he will be missed.

    That is a shame, when I saw he was hurt it disturbed me. He is great young player, I hope he recovers and can continue to play. By the way wasn't he chopped blocked?

    Very sad to hear. He is a big time talent, hopefully he comes back strong for next year and is 100%. Chop blocks should be illegal in any situation. Its freakin cheap.
