Jackson Out of Hospital

Buffalo Bills cornerback Dane Jackson is out of the hospital but is still being evaluated after a very scary neck injury sustained in Monday night’s game against the Tennessee Titans.

Jackson was seen with his neck bent back in an awkward position after a collision with Bills linebacker Tremain Edmunds  in the first half. In a statement, the Bills said that there had been no major injury to his neck or spinal cord.

 

Eli Manning Strolls Into Penn State Tryout

Two-time Super Bowl MVP Eli Manning recently donned a shaggy moustache and an unflattering wig and strolled into an open tryout for Penn State’s football team.
Calling himself Chad Powers, Manning ad-libbed his way through the tryout for an episode of “Eli's Places,” his show on ESPN.

He seemed to be doing pretty well in the tryout by the time the coaches began realizing that something was up.
