INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — Green Bay Packers coach Matt LaFleur said safety Omar Brown will spend Saturday night in an Indianapolis hospital for further evaluation after suffering a chest contusion in a preseason game against the Colts.
LaFleur provided the update following Green Bay's come-from-behind 23-19 victory . Brown was seen wearing an oxygen mask and holding his midsection as he left the field on a golf cart. LaFleur did not have any additional details about the injury.
“It's a scary deal,” LaFleur said.
Brown spent most of last season on the Packers practice squad, but wound up playing in two games and has had a strong enough training camp that he could make the Packers' 53-man roster.
It's yet another injury to an already depleted secondary that is without Pro Bowl safety Xavier
