Drew Brees on his game-ending injury: multiple rib fractures, collapsed lung

this is a discussion within the Saints Community Forum; If he already had something going on, I’m not so sure that flack vest didn’t do more harm than good. He didn’t get hit in the ribs, he hit the ground and his elbow was pushed into his ribs....

If he already had something going on, I’m not so sure that flack vest didn’t do more harm than good. He didn’t get hit in the ribs, he hit the ground and his elbow was pushed into his ribs.

It was the other side where he had the previous injury.

The ribs are fractured on both sides, his lung on the right side is the one that collapse and that’s the side he landed on.

Watch for your self, note which hand goes to which side of his chest after he gets up.

I know. That what I was saying. The left side injury was already there. Street landed on the right side. That was the new injury.

And chill out on the "collapsed lung". LOL! It is minor or minimal and is nothing compared to the cracked ribs.
