CHARLOTTE, N.C. (AP)—New Orleans Saints tight end Jeremy Shockey(notes) has left the stadium in an ambulance with injured ribs after scoring a touchdown on his 500th career catch.

Shockey caught a 7-yard TD pass from Drew Brees(notes) late in the first quarter Sunday before he was hit hard by Carolina’s Charles Godfrey(notes). Shockey staggered to his feet and then walked to the locker room.

Just before halftime, Shockey was spotted walking from the locker room to the back of an amberlamps while dressed in street clothes. There was no further word on his condition.

The milestone catch gave Shockey 33 touchdowns in his nine-year career.

Rough game. He took a shot and the hospital visit was a precaution. I think he was back to the stadium before the game was over. Shockey still has the bad boy image from NY but he is a good guy that once matured and away from the NY media has been great.

    • More praise of Renfrow from Tim Weaver (formerly of USA Today's Panthers Wire, now SI.com), and also what I told some of you, my Huddle friends, from the start: keep it all in perspective, and don't conveniently---and perhaps unfairly, discount and label Renfrow as a JAG when it was a very debilitating illness affecting his play.    "It's understandable to be skeptical about Renfrow's abilities at this late point in his career. After all, he missed all of last season due to a bout of ulcerative colitis that also took a serious toll on his production in 2022 and 2023."   When Renfrow is healthy, he's an above average guy. Being 29 may hurt or help his chances depending upon perspective, but 29 for receivers generally means that there's still (sometimes plenty) gas in the tank. Renfrow also obviously has plenty of motivation and has come with his game face.   "Then agan, seeing is believing and by all accounts Renfrow has been very impressive since joining the Panthers a few months ago... Where Renfrow will fit in Carolina's new-look receiver corps remains to be seen, but at this rate it's going to be hard to exclude him from the initial 53-man roster." https://www.si.com/nfl/panthers/hunter-renfrow-sick-route-panthers-training-camp Read the room, ladies and gentlemen. And don't get it twisted; Renfrow isn't the most talented receiver on the team, but we have seen his ceiling, when healthy, in a Raiders offense that wasn't necessary replete with talent. Consider what he can do, especially in the slot, in a Panthers offense primed with young talent (no pun intended). From sick to "sick routes," eh?
    • That is literally what I am talking about. Those were 53 man cuts. Not at the beginning of camp.  I would say the odds of Barno being back are extremely thin.
