Obomanu injurs neck......

[TigerfanKM 37]

Here is the info from FOX Sports.com:

The only injuries of note were reserve wide receiver Ben Obomanu and backup tight end Ben Joppru, who injured his hip.

Obomanu injured his neck on a 17-yard catch and run when he was hit in the helmet by C.J. Wallace, a rookie safety from Washington. Obomanu, a seventh-round draft choice in 2006, walked to an ambulance with medical personnel flanking him.

Holmgren did not immediately know the severity of Obomanu's injury.

Let's hope he is OK.....

Sounds like it.

It's scary either way, and I wish him the best, but if there was ANNNNY doubt or question about severity, they would have strapped him to a backboard, left his helmet on and put a neck restraint on.

He should be alright!

Get those eyes up ROOK! (Wallace)

Not the best of starts for AU alumni Seahawks: Link

The other players injured in the scrimmage were rookie receiver Courtney Taylor, who suffered a knee injury, and tight end Ben Joppru, who injured his hip.
