Bucs' Russell Gage hospitalized after suffering scary injury vs Cowboys

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Russell Gage was taken off the field on a backboard and hospitalized after suffering a scary injury during Monday night's game.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Russell Gage Jr. was involved in a scary play toward the end of the team’s 31-14 loss to the Dallas Cowboys in their NFC wild-card matchup.

Tom Brady threw a pass to Gage on second down from the Cowboys’ 19-yard line and the veteran wide receiver went down in pain after he was hit in the back and neck area by Donovan Wilson.

The Buccaneers’ medical staff rushed to the scene and players watched as the trainers attended to the play.

The medical personnel called for a cart and put Gage on a backboard to take him off the field. Buccaneers and Cowboys players went down to one knee. It appeared Gage was able to move his right leg as he was being worked on and eventually, he was taken off the field and to the hospital.
