Ex-Saint Jeff Charleston recovering from serious injuries after motorcycle crash in New Orleans
 

Jeff Charleston, who helped the New Orleans Saints win the Super Bowl a decade ago, is recovering from "life-threatening injuries" he suffered when his motorcycle collided with car days before Christmas, according to a statement issued Tuesday.

The statement contained few details about the crash but said that it occurred Dec. 22 on Interstate 10 near the Carrollton Avenue overpass. Charleston was thrown from the motorcycle, fracturing his pelvis and suffering “other life-threatening injuries,” said the statement, prepared by media relations consultant Karen Carvin.

The statement said Charleston, 36, has since undergone several surgeries, with more expected. But, in a relatively encouraging development, medical staff by Tuesday had moved Charleston out of the intensive care unit after he had spent a week there.
