MattyK - ouch, that was a gruesome video. If McCallum can run after that, it makes me optimistic that RG3 will come back stronger than ever..

"After grim NFL injury, Napoleon McCallum remained buoyant - Los Angeles Times

...He'd suffered a dislocated knee. Three ligaments had been torn, ripping his calf and hamstring muscles from the bone, and he'd suffered nerve and artery damage as well.

McCallum says he runs, cycles, swims and even plays basketball. Someday soon, he says, he hopes to try a half-triathlon.

...It's just part of the game," McCallum says. "It wasn't a vicious play. I was playing football, and sometimes you get hurt."
