Jets lineman Xavier Newman taken to hospital after suffering neck injury

New York Jets offensive lineman Xavier Newman was carted off the sphere in Pittsburgh after what seemed to be a severe harm Sunday towards the Steelers.

The crew stated Newman would miss the remainder of the sport with a neck harm.

Newman was damage within the third quarter when Jets quarterback Aaron Rodgers was intercepted by Pittsburgh’s Beanie Bishop Jr., who returned 41 yards.

Throughout the return, Newman was blocked and fell awkwardly. When he remained down, Jets teammates surrounded him out of bounds for a number of minutes.

The “Sunday Evening Soccer” broadcast reported that Newman was aware and had motion in his limbs as he was strapped to a backbone board earlier than he was carted off and brought to a hospital in Pittsburgh.

Jets interim head coach Jeff Ulbrich stated after the sport that Newman was okay and leaving the hospital.

“Thank the Lord, his exams got here again destructive, he’s touring again with the crew. Enormous aid from that,” Ulbrich stated, in keeping with NBC Sports activities.
