The Denver Broncos had quite a scare in the third quarter of the game against the Oakland Raiders when Zaire Anderson injured his neck badly trying to make a tackle.

He wasn’t shown any movement and was taken out on a stretcher to a waiting ambulance. Patrick Smyth has since given an update on his situation there and though he has an injured neck, Anderson is showing movement in his extremities.

That is definitely a huge relief. Hopefully he will make a quick and speedy recovery from this injury.
