Minnesota
Vikings defensive back/punt returner Charles Gordon suffered a
gruesome ankle injury on November 9th, 2008, returning a punt
against the Green Bay Packers.
Gordeon,
a 3rd year player out of Kansas, had planted his left leg to change
direction when a Packers player rolled up his leg, folding the
ankle under. Gordon, in obvious pain, laid on the turk in a way
that reminded us a bit of this Destry
Wright ankle injury.
Gordon
had to be lifted onto the cart to be taken off the field, and
was in obvious pain. YouTube videos (and screen grabs, since who
knows if they'll stay up on YouTube) are below. WARNING--MAY NOT
