Jacksonville, FL (CBSNewYork)- Former New York Giants head coach Tom Coughlin is recovering in Florida following a bicycle accident that sent him to the hospital for a night this past weekend.

The 73-year-old Coughlin suffered four fractured ribs, a slightly punctured lung and needed stitches on his head following the incident he confirmed to ESPN.

Coughlin told the outlet that the accident happened when a man on a racing bike “comes out of nowhere and clips the front of my bike.” After the accident, Coughlin initially went home before being convinced to visit the emergency room where he underwent X-Rays and a CT scan according to CBS Sports.
