Nasty leg break during New Orleans Bowl
Southern Mississippi receiver DeAndre Brown fractured his lower left leg and was taken to the hospital during the first quarter of Sunday nights New Orleans Bowl against Troy.
Only minutes after his 67th reception of the season set a school record, Browns leg gave out unnaturally as he landed in the end zone during a long incompletion. The defender on the play, Tavares Williams, put his hands o

Brown writhed in pain as trainers raced to his side. He was placed on a stretcher and lifted onto a cart. He then sat up, receiving applause, as the cart headed into the tunnel in the Louisiana Superdome.
Southern Miss spokesman Jack Duggan said the injury was a lower leg fracture but could not immediately provide details on the severity.

It didn't even look like he twisted it or stepped wrong, it just looks like it gave out and snapped. I've broken my leg and damn it hurts! Godspeed to a speedy recovery!

In our defense it's really just an excuse to breathe after running for an hour and a half straight. I don't milk it like I see most people though my dad would never let me hear the end of it.

That accident happens far more in "soccer" than in that sport. seen that injury a few times.
Let me tell you some more...his recovery could depend on whether the skin was broken. If the bone was exposed his career is probably over.
look up david buste/ dennis irwin broken leg

maybe you know more about this than i do
it's easier to recover from a dislocation than a broken bone, regarding being able to go back to sports, right? i'm assuming it is but want to hear a second opinion
