Half the reports say both legs "visibly broken," other half says he's fine. I really hope he's fine. Sounds like the other driver ran a red light and T-boned his truck.

Photo snap of a smiling Newton.

Seems okay. Probably has a wild case of whip-lash though.
 
Most important thing?

Looks like no head injuries. Damned lucky looking at that truck.

Newton’s truck flipped, up to four times according to one report. Though the trip to the hospital was a precaution, one photograph from the scene show Newton immobilized on a stretcher. He nevertheless was conscious and smiling after the crash.

For now, the most important news is that Newton did not suffer serious injuries.

Maybe Cam really is Superman to come out okay from a truck that flipped over 4 times. :eek:
 
Thanks whoever edited my headline, glad to hear he's not injured. I do like Newton a lot, he's a fun QB to watch when he's got any semblance of a line. That and with as scary as the crash looked, it's good to see anyone walk away OK.
 
Fuckin' red-light runners. One of those jagoffs put me out of commission for a year.
