My bad, I was thinking Tyler Lockette
 
He played with quite a bit of reckless abandon. Didn't he suffer a pretty bad neck injury within the last few seasons.

wow. Sorry to have read this:

...Ricardo Lockette never fully recovered from the vicious hit he took on special teams last November, and now his career is over. and... he's no longer able to rotate his head.

That sucks for him. As someone who has limited head movement I really sympathize with him. It is very difficult to have to go from being a physical person that exercised most of their adult life and played hard to having neck trouble that involves limited movement. It is a life changer. I hope he copes well and his problems don't worsen.

For everybody who complains about how much NFL players get paid, here is evidence they don't get paid enough. It's hard, dangerous work - that we are paying billions to watch.
