Shockey caught a 7-yard TD pass from Drew Brees late in the first quarter before he was hit hard by the Carolina Panthers' Charles Godfrey. Shockey staggered to his feet, then walked to the Saints' locker room.

Just before halftime, Shockey was spotted walking from the locker room to the back of an ambulance while dressed in street clothes.

The Times-Picayune reported that Shockey returned to the stadium during the second half, with the hospital trip a precautionary measure. The newspaper also reported that Shockey's injury wasn't believed to be serious.

The milestone catch gave Shockey 33 touchdowns in his nine-year NFL career.

This x 150,000.

Jimmy Graham is going to be a great player for years to come, the guy is a natural player and Payton is trusting him alot more as he's getting more integrated into the Offense.

WTF did Mora say about a pea in a wok when talking about Graham early in the game? I wanted to punch Mora through the TV, so I sometimes tune his voice out. He's an idiot, but yeah I like Graham. A lot.

there's nothing pea-like about that giant...mora should say that to his face. idiot mora.

It's obvious; Mora still carries around a little hate for us, stemming from his Atl coaching days.

get well JS...bye week should help

Was very Impressed with Jimmy Graham. I might have to pick him up on my Fantasy team.

Yeah, and he is not even in the same zip code as his potential. Get well shock, and teach this kid some stuff while you're at it.

Bruise, bye week and a half in the hot tub for him.

the average human would've been broken in half by that hit to the back.

all shock suffered was a bruise....

additional side note: David Thomas is good
