Oakland Raiders running back Mike Goodson was taken to the hospital earlier in the day, after taking a helmet-to-helmet hit from teammate linebacker Philip Wheeler. Goodson was taken off the field on a stretcher and rushed to the hospital in an ambulance, but Goodson's agent Kennard McGuire passed word to the media that Goodson is doing fine.
Mike Goodson Injury: Philip Wheeler Describes Helmet-To-Helmet Hit
Wheeler, who delivered the blow, is praying that Goodson isn’t seriously injured.
"I thought he was going to get up. He's not a big dude. He's kind of light. I just felt like as soon as I hit him, he fell, he was on the ground, and I didn't think he was that bad off until he said something," Wheeler told Levi Damien of Silver And Black Pride. "He said something. I forgot what he said, that he couldn't get up. That's when I knew he was pretty bad.
“I texted him already and told him that I’m praying for him, that I’m sorry and I didn’t mean to do it.”
