You don’t have to be a doctor to see Adarius Glanton might not walk for some time after snapping his leg into two.
The Buccaneers linebacker came off the edge in chase of Falcons QB Matt Ryan, only to collide with teammate Robert Ayers come from the other side. Ayer’s leg hit Glaton’s with so much force, it snapped his tibia and fibula clean.

Ayers was also injured on the play, of course not as seriously.

Will need rodding surgery.
Chance for full recovery for 2018. pic.twitter.com/6lpvCUG60S— David J. Chao, MD (@ProFootballDoc) December 19, 2017
