Buccaneers WR Russell Gage provides update after frightening injury

Russell Gage left Monday night’s game between the Dallas Cowboys and Tampa Bay Buccaneers after he suffered a frightening injury, but fortunately, the veteran wide receiver appears to be doing well.

Gage was carted off the field late in the fourth quarter of Tampa Bay’s 31-14 loss after his neck bent awkwardly on a hit from Cowboys safety Donovan Wilson. He tried to get up after the play but looked like he was unable to, at which point trainers rushed out.

Bucs head coach Todd Bowles said after the game that Gage suffered a concussion and would undergo tests on his neck at the hospital. On Tuesday, Gage provided a first-hand update on his Twitter account. The 26-year-old said he is “doing great and in great spirits!”
