3 other notable injuries from Week 13
Which injuries were the worst during Week 13?
#3 - Mike Glennon
Mike Glennon started for the New York Giants because Daniel Jones is dealing with his own injury. The Giants were beaten by the surging Miami Dolphins, and it appears that Glennon suffered a concussion as a result of that loss as well.

Though the Dolphins held onto the ball in the fourth quarter, Glennon would not return, and rookie Jake Fromm suited up to take his place. That would never come to fruition as the Dolphins closed the game out. Glennon will now enter concussion protocol and miss, at least, the next game, if not two.
#2 - Kenyan Drake
Kenyan Drake suffered one of the worst injuries of yesterday's slate of games. Not only did the Las Vegas Raiders lose to the Washington Football Team, but Drake is now done for the season as he suffered a pedal ankle fracture.
That is tough news for the Raiders as they are already down to two running backs. Josh Jacobs and Peyton Barber are now the only two healthy running backs on the Raiders depth chart. Drake was a welcome addition to the team, but will now have to wait until the 2022 season to play again.
#1 - Trenton Cannon
There is nothing worse than seeing severe neck and head injuries. Players that deal with severe trauma to their head or neck can end up being paralyzed, and that was the case with the opening kick-off play yesterday. The San Francisco 49ers took on the Seattle Seahawks yesterday.
The opening play saw Trenton Cannon fall. His head and neck were snapped back on the leg of another 49ers player. The scary sight saw Cannon stay down on the field for a long time. The hope is that he has not suffered any life-threatening injuries and that he can return to the game at some point.
