Former Kansas City Chiefs running back Ed Podolak is recovering in an Arizona hospital after he was hit by a car in Scottsdale Sunday.

Podolak, who serves as an announcer for the Iowa football program, was struck by a vehicle while crossing a street outside his hotel. He has serious injuries but is in stable condition and is expected to recover.

Podolak, the fourth-leading rusher in the history of the Chiefs, was in Scottsdale for a social event.
