It’s scary enough to see players carted off the field, but arguably more so when the person strapped to a stretcher is a 69-year-old coach.
Wade Phillips was crated off the field after taking a hit by a Chargers player.

Wade Phillips just raised his right index finger … arms are strapped down … gives the “No. 1” signal as he’s carted out of the stadium.

Phillips does have movement in all of his extremities and has made his way to a local hospital for further evaluation.
