    I saw a tweet that said both legs looked to be visibly broken. Sad news.

    Sad. He helped me squeak into my fantasy football playoffs. Now I'm screwed. But seriously hope Cam is okay and makes a speedy recovery.

    Next man up, JOHNNY FOOTBALL. smdh

    I don't think so. I saw that a Carolina Panthers news site tweeted something about but I think they fell for a fake tweet. He was sitting up and smiling after the accident so thats a good sign.
