Tracy Porter Hospitalized after neck injury
1 Attachment(s)
Porter was hurt breaking up a pass on the second play from scrimmage of New Orleans' game against Tampa Bay on Sunday. Porter was communicating with teammates and gave a thumbs-up as he was carted from the field.
Porter lay face down and motionless for several seconds after making a hard, low hit on receiver Mike Williams, who appeared to hurt his left leg but later returned to the game. Soon after the collision, Porter was moving both legs briefly before trainers held him still, carefully turned him on his back, removed his face mask and strapped him to a stretcher Tracy Porter of New Orleans Saints hospitalized with neck injury - ESPN |
I heard them say during the game that there was no neurological damage.
|
I hope he is ok. Anyone know any farther news?
|
I hope he is o.k. also.
|
Hope he's ok too...
|
Payton said everything was ok.
|
Seems to be precautionary, if there is no nerve damage he'll probably be back out there after a good hot bath and a heated back/neck massage.
However Porter is known to be a slow healer and might try and stay out as long as he possibly can. |
Robinson got hurt too, which makes us pretty thin at CB. Again.

Saints CB Tracy Porter is back with the team after leaving Sunday's win over the Bucs on a stretcher.
He has full use of his arms and legs after checking out neurologically, and is experiencing soreness in his chest and neck. Porter's status for Week 10 is uncertain, but it's great news that the scary injury isn't more severe. Source: Profootballtalk on NBC Sports |

Would love to have D sharper play for us again, I would bet any amount that we get turnovers the game he was in on the field. Plus he's like one pick 6 away from the NFL record with rod woodson |
That is some good news, good sign there.
Best to Porter. Good guy, good player. Just left a psot on another thread, no rejoice from me if another teams' player is hurt. I certainly don't want bad vibes/karma coming to our SAINT!!!!!!!!!!!!! |

I hope so..i dig Sharpers mojo...he can help this team in many ways...sideline or in the game.....take Dennis Allens place |
Glad to hear he's doing better, it was a scary moment.
I second the earlier question, where in the world is Johnny Patrick? Is he hurt? |

Thank goodness Porter is ok. That was a scary hit. I was literally speechless the entire time he was laying on the turf.
As much as I hate our rival teams, I would never wish an injury on any of them. Karma has a way of coming back on people who do that. |

Seems like this whole thing was just a bunch of precautionary stuff. Better safe than sorry though. Glad he seems to be OK. |
I didn't see the injury, but it sounds like it looked pretty scary there for a while. Glad Porter is doing ok.
|
I figured he just had his bell rung! He got up momentarily after the hit then went back down. Im sure he'll be fine.
|
I just wish he would have broke Mike Williams leg.
|
(I didnt see the hit, as we were in the crowd, who couldnt get in because of the heightened security.)
Good to hear Porter's ok. I saw his legs moving, but then the took a lot of time preparing to move him, so it was pretty scary. Then when they were carting him off, I was hoping he's give some sort of thumbs up, but he didnt move anything going off the field. I like the way Romig announced, "From Port Allen, Louisiana, Tracey Porter..." Get better fast, #22! |

The other corners stepped up in his place. |
Have we sign Sharper yet !

With that said, get well 22, we need ya down the stretch!!! |
man i was so worried bout tracy and a bad injury. it looked like a clean hi- tech tackle, then in an instant he goes down and your thinking head injury, concussion. get back soon dogg.
|
He got up after the hit & then he went to a knee & from there to the gorund, so... Is that a good isgn or a bad one?? Is it shoulder or neck??

I couldnt see it from my angle in the Terrace... you know, when they get really close to the exit, you cant see where I am. Surprised they didnt show it on the big screen. Glad to know he's ok. |
Actually I didn't think much of the hit. It didn't look that bad. I've see countless hits that look worse that people get up from. He didn't even lead with his head.
