Rutgers Player Paralyzed: Eric Legrand Football Injury Video – A lot of people are worried about the condition of Eric Legrand as he was taken to Hackensack Medical Center last Saturday after suffering a spinal injury in a collision against Army’s football player Malcolm Brown. His body was paralyzed from neck below all the way to his feet.
After the collision, Eric LeGrand lay motionless for seven minutes while his neck was immobilized and he was placed on a backboard. He was immediately treated at the intensive care unit of the hospital. Army coach Rich Ellerson walked on the field at one point and put his hand on Rutger coach Schiano’s shoulder to comfort him.
LeGrand’s family thanked all the people who helped them saying: “We want to say thank you to everyone for all of your prayers, kind words, and well wishes. We appreciate every single thought. Eric is in good spirits and we are praying for a full recovery.”
When asked about LeGrand’s condition in the hospital, Coach Schiano said: “Eric’s spirits were as good as you can expect. He was cognizant of me being there, his mom, everybody. He’s a fighter.”
Below is Eric Le Grand’s Video detailing what happened to him after making a violent tackle in the game against Army last Saturday. We’re all praying for his fast recovery and we look forward to seeing him walk again with his team.

A parents worst night mare is watching their child become ill or injured. As a child, seeing your parents agonize over their illness or injury is just as devastating. My prayer is for Eric to make a full recovery and continue to be the fine young man he is, and his parents to see this happen. You are in our thoughts and prayers.
Stay strong you are in our prayers
Eric-
We pray for you and those close to you. Stay strong. Persevere. To the parents, this is an unexpected nightmare, a dark land of which none of us thought we would never enter. You are in my personal prayers. We pray to St. Michael, Archangel. Amen.
Best wishes.Stay strong.You will be in all my prayers.

I can’t imagine what it feels like to be you now in this time of day. It must be hard for you, i know it would be hard for me if I was in your position. As long as you believe Eric anything is possible in this world. I had a friend in the hospital[9-10 years old] with cancer and I believed he would make it with my prayers and thinking of him everyday. I believed he wouldn’t of had to go back to that devisating place again. So after her second year of cancer I said to god this it hes gonna feel better and get to enjoy life like I do today. Therefore, sure enough my prayer came true. So Eric believe pray I’ll do the same for you and believe you will make it through this and we will make it through this together, just like i did with my friend.
