Cardinals’ Travis Vokolek (neck) taken off via stretcher; Marvin Harrison (concussion) also out
The Arizona Cardinals’ game against the Colts Sunday in Indianapolis featured a scary moment when Arizona reserve tight end Travis Vokolek was injured on a kickoff and laid on the turf motionless for some time.
Vokolek’s head and neck area were stabilized and he was placed on a stretcher. The Cardinals termed it a neck injury in an official update.
Per reporters on the scene, Vokolek was moving his hands while being placed on the stretcher — after having his facemask removed.
Vokolek, 27, is a third-year player who played collegiately at Rutgers and Nebraska. In three years, all for Arizona, Vokolek has appeared in seven games with one start this season against the Carolina Panthers. He has five combined tackles on special teams with no receptions during his career.
Also on Sunday, the Cardinals ruled wide receiver Marvin Harrison Jr. out with a concussion that he sustained in the second quarter. He hit his head on the turf after a 21-yard reception.
Harrison had two receptions for 32 yards prior to the injury.
