Shutdown Corner - NFL

Ravens safety Dawan Landry took a knee to the head as he attempted to tackle Cleveland running back Jamal Lewis. Landry lay motion motionless on the field until we saw the sickeningly familiar site of a man on a stretcher, his facemask removed, not moving an inch.

(UPDATE: Word from the hospital is that Landry never lost consciousness, and has full movement in his arms and legs. Phew. Still no word on the actual injury suffered, but thankfully, it's not something catastrophic.)

    A friend of mine lives about two blocks away from the Ravens stadium and said that he saw an ambulance with a police escort zoom by his apartment soon after the injury. I guess I'm not surprised that an ambulance with an NFL player inside gets a police escort, but I thought it was interesting, nonetheless.
