The NFL is a tough grueling league where injuries are common. When you’re hitting and running as hard as they are this should come as no surprise. Let’s take a look at what players suffered injuries this past weekend in the NFL…
Jordy Nelson was all set to help the Packers beat the Falcons on Sunday night, but early on he tweaked his quad and had to exit the game. It didn’t look bad, but apparently, it was bad enough to keep him out the entire game. Hopefully, this injury won’t last long for the star receiver.
The Carolina Panthers lost Greg Olsen for significant time Sunday when he went down with a foot injury. He broke his right foot and told reporters afterward that he would miss many games. This is just awful news for the Panthers and Olsen.
Corey Coleman was a great candidate to have a huge season for the Browns, but this receiver may be missing significant time as well. Rumors are flying around that he broke his hand, something that also happened to him last year.
Jordan Howard of the Bears was seen with a sling on his right arm after the game against the Bucs on Sunday. There’s no telling what is going on with him, but we’ll be keeping an eye on it for sure.
Rob Gronkowski left the game against the Saints Sunday with a groin injury. He had over 100 receiving yards at the time, but couldn’t finish the game due to the injury.
