Detroit Lions' Morice Norris injury raises memories of similar recent NFL incidents
The most frightening happened in January 2023 when Buffalo Bills safety Damar Hamlin went into cardiac arrest and had to be resuscitated on the field after attempting to make a routine tackle during the first quarter of a regular-season game at Cincinnati.
The last time a preseason game was stopped before completion actually happened in consecutive weeks in August 2023.
New England's game at Green Bay in Week 2 of the 2023 preseason was called off when Patriots cornerback Isaiah Bolden was carted off in the fourth quarter. Bolden appeared to collide with teammate Calvin Munson while attempting to make a hit on a pass completion to Malik Heath of the Packers.
Bolden was taken to a hospital and released the next day.
A week later, a game between Miami and Jacksonville was not completed after Dolphins receiver Daewood Davis was carted off in the fourth quarter. Davis was hurt when he ran a slant route and was attempting to catch a pass and he was hit by Jaguars linebacker Dequan Jackson.
Davis was released from the hospital a day later.
The two frightening injuries happened some eight months after Hamlin was injured in front of a national TV audience on 'Monday Night Football.'
Hamlin has since become an advocate for CPR training and having automatic external defibrillators available at community centers and youth and high school sporting events.

Anthony Davis and LeBron James uploads same cryptic post on social media
Anthony Davis and LeBron James uploads same cryptic post on social media originally appeared on The Sporting News The internet has been buzzing on Tuesday when Anthony Davis and LeBron James reposted the same cryptic quote on their Instagram stories. During their time together playing for the Los Angeles Lakers, Davis and James have become close friends. They often hung out off the court and would even spend time with each one's families when given the opportunity. However, there have been rumors that their bond has been broken ever since Davis was traded to the Dallas Mavericks. At the last second before the trade deadline of the 2024-25 NBA season, the Mavericks and Lakers pulled off one of the biggest trades in league history. It was the first time two All-Star players were traded for each other in the middle of the regular season. Davis was sent to Dallas, while Los Angeles received Luka Doncic in return. Many claimed that everyone involved was blindsided by the jaw-dropping trade, including James. When Davis asked his longtime Lakers teammate if he was aware of Rob Pelinka's decision, James claimed he was left in the shadows. Despite their interaction, there were reports that Davis wasn't convinced of his former teammate's claims. As the season carried on, there were moments when Davis and James acted snobbish towards each other whenever the Mavericks would face off against the Lakers. Their friendship appeared strained and didn't seem as close as they once were. Fast forward to the present day, and it seems their friendship might be over. An X post went viral on social media on Tuesday. The post featured a couple of screenshots from Davis and James' Instagram stories. Both stars reposted the same quote, which reads: "Becoming the best version of yourself comes with a lot of goodbyes" Social media went into a frenzy and immediately thought of the worst possible outcome. Both stars made it seem like they've moved on from each other. However, readers should take this with a grain of salt. As of this writing, neither of the two stars has confirmed whether or not they've cut ties with each one.
