On Sunday, an NFL official had to be carried off the field on a stretcher… after suffering a severe leg injury in a sideline collision with Alvin Kamara.
The play happened in the second quarter of the Saints’ matchup with the Lions in New Orleans … when Kamara took a pitch from Derek Carr and accelerated toward the first-down marker.
The sideline worker crumpled in pain as soon as Kamara hit him … and broadcast cameras showed his leg had bent awkwardly inward as a result of the hit.
Trainers eventually raced to his aid … and strapped him to a backboard — before carting him away from the field for further treatment.
Meanwhile, despite the horrible spectacle at the Superdome, Kamara and the Saints were able to mount a comeback… but they ultimately lost to Detroit, 33-28.
