Thoughts and prayers up for Jimmy Graham. He went biking, and was hit by a car.

More details on bleacher report, but link isn’t working. Here is a screenshot. Maybe devs can fix the broken link issue? Jimmy Graham said he did more damage to the car than himself, but he has a pretty big gash on his calf.

Ex-NFL Star Jimmy Graham Hit By Car During Bike Ride, Suffers 'Deep' Leg Gash

Get well soon, big guy!

Always loved Jimmy Graham, hope he recovers fast

Story says the bike was colored “in New Orleans Saints colors,” so he gets a coupla coolness points for that

I’d say the team won with him all the way around. They won games when he was on his rookie mid-round pick salary, then when it was time to trade him, they won the trade.

glad it wasn't plane related

I had a feeling this day would come when he started flying. I never thought he'd be hit by a car though...

I hope he get well soon.

Here's to a speedy recovery. Really liked him when he was here and missed him after he left.

So glad he# doing fine and nothing more than his calf sustained injury. I hope it doesn’t impact his sailing training. I love how adventurous he is. Jimmy’s life sounds like a movie in many aspects. He’s worked hard for everything he’s gotten and I am proud of all his accomplishments.

Does anyone know if he’s already quietly retired? I’d be curious why he’s yet to do so if he hasn’t already. Regardless, I wish him continued success in his next chapter in life.

Yeah but it really could have been a better story. Paired with Drew for his entire career like Gronk had with Brady, he could have gone down as one of the all time greats. I certainly understand from both sides how the break probably had to happen, but that doesn’t make it less of an opportunity missed.

Dang. This is why I never bike anywhere. Terrified of this happening. Especially in New Orleans. Every time I start thinking about it again I pass one of those white bike memorials. Hoping he is gonna be alright!
