A Chicago Bears vs. Atlanta Falcons game paused for an extended period after rookie defender Kendal Daniels appeared to suffer a frightening injury. Both teams took a knee while medical personnel attended to him.
During the broadcast, multiple commercial breaks occurred as Daniels received on-site care. He was eventually seen moving his left hand while being transported off the field on a stretcher with his head and neck secured in a brace. The Falcons have not released extensive details about Daniels’ condition, but they announced that he would be out for the remainder of the game due to a neck injury. The game resumed after the prolonged stoppage.
