Brandon Marshall

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.

Marshall ends his shortened season with 61 receptions for 721 yards and eight touchdowns. It’s the first time the receiver has failed to reach 1,000 receiving yards since his rookie season back in 2006.
