Scary injuries to Bucs' Wolford, Pats' Bolden mar NFL pre-season games

Frightening injuries sustained by Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback John Wolford and New England Patriots rookie Isaiah Bolden marred a pair of NFL pre-season games on Saturday.

Wolford was stretchered off with a neck injury in the Bucs' 13-6 victory over the Jets in New York.

Tampa Bay were up 10-6 when Wolford, the team's third-string signal caller hit the ground awkwardly after being tackled by Jets' defensive lineman Jalyn Holmes.

Wolford lay motionless on the field for several minutes, players from both teams gathering around him, before he was taken from the field with his neck stabilized by a backboard.
