During Thursday’s disappointing loss to the Dallas Cowboys, Bears wideout Brandon Marshall took a wicked knee to the back and had to be taken to the hospital.
Marshall suffered two fractured ribs and a collapsed lung as a result of the hit and is expected to miss the rest of the Bears’ embarrassment of a season.
