Chicago, IL (SportsNetwork.com) – Chicago Bears wide receiver Brandon Marshall was taken by ambulance to a hospital after suffering an injury to his ribs in the first half of Thursday’s loss to Dallas.<\/p>\n
Marshall was injured on a 15-yard catch with seven minutes remaining in the second quarter when the left knee of Cowboys safety Barry Church hit him in the middle of his back.<\/p>\n
The receiver walked gingerly off the field after laying on the ground for several minutes and went to the locker room.<\/p>\n
Later, the Bears said he would not return to the game and the NFL Network broadcast showed Marshall sitting in the back of an ambulance as it drove away.<\/p>\n
He later tweeted that he was “good.” NFL.com reported that the Bears fear he has fractured ribs and that his season is in doubt.<\/p>\n
The fourth-down catch deep in Dallas territory that Marshall was injured on led to a Bears touchdown and a 7-7 tie. He also had a 42-yard reception on the drive after tipping the ball to himself in traffic over the middle of the field.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
