Cam Newton Injuried in major car accident (1 Viewer)

[KellysHeroes]

According to the Charlotte Observer, Cam Newton was injured in a major car crash in North Carolina Tuesday afternoon.

A truck crashed into another car and overturned at about 12:30pm ET Tuesday. It's reportedly Newton's truck. He was spotted getting medical attention before being loaded into an ambulance via a stretcher. Our thoughts are with Newton right now as we wait for more details to emerge.

Please try to keep the subject matter to Newton's accident and his health (wish everybody is ok).

seems like it's not that major, the truck is just on it's side.

A car crashed and overturned on the Church Street bridge over I-277 about 12:30 p.m. and ambulances are on the scene. A second car involved in the crash is also in the road, near Hill Street.

An Observer photographer at the scene said Panthers quarterback Cam Newton was injured in the wreck.

Rescuers have closed outbound Church Street at Stonewall.

More details upcoming.

Did he get hit by a Honda?

Depends on if he was wearing his seat belt or not.

How the truck lands doesn't really indicate how major it is, as it could have rolled more than once. I've seen an SUV roll over a couple of times, landing on it's side didn't make me think it was any les major than if it had landed upside down after the final roll.

true, but in that case the top of the truck would have been damaged as well, the picture doesn't show that at all.

 

[STEADYMOBBIN 22]

There's a pic of him holding his leg. It might be serious but it ain't life threatening.

 

[dcgangstas]

Thoughts and prayers to Cam and his family.

Hoping for the best.

Repeat that to yourself out loud, maybe it will sound as odd to you as it does me.

We have some traffic accident experts here on an accident they did not even see.

Real quick, ask Cam Newton if it was major to him.

I guess we just disagree on what is major, when I think of major I think of life threatening and not fantasy football threatening.

hard to think he'll play this week or even the rest of the season, looks bad

 

[Leonidas]

Look at the pictures. The top of the truck is collapsed pretty well. It either rolled upside down at some point or was hit in the roof while on its side

Edit: I see somebody claimed it flipped four times. I believe it from the photos

Bump Kelvin Benjamin?

Nothing is more accurate than witness tweets the first 30 minutes after something happens.

The link in the other thread has a witness reporting that both legs are visibly broken.

That's scary stuff.

Wish Cam well.

Rickey Jackson, HOF LB for the Saints, was in a car accident like this once, his jaw was wired shut, he missed one game.

Slapdash's post was a lame reference to an internet hoax last year that suggested Cam had broken his leg. Had nothing to do with this incident.

 

[oswizzle]

D.Anderson time.... bump KB at least this week... even if Cam isn't hurt... not playing this week after the stress his body just went through

I call any accident that involves a vehicle flipping, major. So yeah, we will disagree. Only one mentioning fantasy football is you.

Witness: His legs were visibly broken.

[Random person overhears this and sends out a tweet.]

Reporter: Visibly? What did you see?

Witness: Both legs turned at a 90 degree angle.

Reporter: Where?

Witness: I'd say about halfway down?

Reporter: Halfway? So around the knees?

Witness: Oh, yeah, good point. Maybe he was just bending his legs at the knee.

I like to feel that I aided his recovery in some small way.

I now wish Julio Jones well.

Thought that was Drew Brees.

Actually Benjamin is a screaming start if Anderson is the QB.

Can't believe one of these is finally real.

Olsen gets the bigger bump if newton doesn't play.

 

[just_want_2_win]

Updating an earlier item, Cam Newton was "conscious and smiling" following his Tuesday car accident, and did not want to be taken to the hospital.
WBTV's Steve Crump went so far as to report that Newton suffered "no injuries," and that being loaded onto a stretcher before being taken to the hospital was a "precaution." That would obviously be the best-case scenario after Newton's truck got crunched up in scary fashion. The situation will be updated Tuesday afternoon.

Bump no one.

I personally find ball cancer hilarious, for the record!But seriously calm down, the only thing that's a big deal about the joke is your reaction to it.
