Green Bay wide receiver Jayden Reed was carted off the field early in the first quarter today, placed on a backboard after taking a brutal hit during the Packers’ game against the Jets at MetLife Stadium. It was a seriously worrying moment for everyone watching.
The Play That Halted Everything
This whole thing went down unbelievably early, on just the Packers’ second offensive play of the game. Reed had grabbed a short gain when Jets linebacker Demario Davis delivered a big hit. Reed stayed down, and you just knew it was bad. The silence across MetLife Stadium was absolutely deafening, with players from both teams taking a knee as the medical staff rushed onto the field.
Waiting On The Updates After A Troubled Past
Medical personnel took an extended look at Reed right there on the field. They eventually placed him on a backboard and got him loaded onto a cart for transport. It’s an immediate gut punch for the Packers, especially since Reed missed ten games last season. That history makes this hit feel even heavier.
Right now, all eyes are on the team for updates on his condition. Those reports will give us a much clearer idea of how long he’ll miss this time because of Sunday’s injury. We are all pulling for him.
