Buffalo Bills cornerback Dane Jackson has been released from the hospital and is said to have avoided "major injury" after being taken off the field in an ambulance during Monday night’s game against the Tennessee Titans following a terrifying collision with teammate Tremaine Edmunds, the team announced Tuesday.
Jackson, 25, was transported to the Erie County Medical Center, where he was evaluated for a neck injury, the Bills announced Monday night, adding that he had "full movement in his extremities."
The following morning he was released from the hospital and was ultimately cleared of any "major injury to his neck or spinal cord."
