Dallas Cowboys defensive lineman Tyrone Crawford was taken off the field Sunday on a cart after getting injured on the second play of the game against Tampa Bay.
Crawford, a seventh-year player and defensive captain for the Cowboys, had the face mask removed from his helmet before being stabilized on a board and carted off.
The 29-year-old was injured after he appeared to be hit in the neck by the shoulder of Tampa Bay offensive lineman Ryan Jensen on just the second play of the game.
