Just seen he was involved in a crash today, some reports have stated he broke both legs possibly. Get well cam!

Don't see any air casts on those legs so that's good news.

He has 2 transverse process fractures in his lower back.

Same thing Romo had earlier this year.

The broken legs report is a hoax that has been circulating around the internet for various QB's. Ben has one of those hoax stories out there as well.

Not sure why a website thinks its a good hoax but I guess it's a quick way to make a few bucks using click counts.

Local news here in Atlanta just reported what Dizz said. Apparently flipped his truck multiple times so while not good, certainly a lot less than it could have been. Not career threatening.

Don't care for the guy. Real prima donna. But I hope he comes out alright.

I was hanging out with a guy today whose friend lives in Charlotte and was at the scene - the pics he texted him looked bad. Glad to hear it's not too serious.

When I saw the truck I thought he would have serious injuries. Not sure how a truck that size doesnt have a roll bar.

Amazing he only suffered the injuries he sustained by the way that truck looks!

Here in Wyoming we would just bend it back and drive it again.

That could have been a lot worse. Quick recovery for him n other driver.

Maybe after all these years of pretending to rip off his shirt to reveal the "S", perhaps Newton is indeed Superman...faster than a speeding locomotive, able to leap tall buildings in a single bound, can walk away from a rollover crash in a truck without a roll bar...but has he headbutted a Chrysler windshield at 40 mph with his bare head? No? Then maybe the wrong QB is Superman. ;)
