"I've seen him look like that before," Leland Welker told the Boston Globe. "It was always in a losing effort or something like that. It wasn't a good sign."
Welker went down on his first catch of the game in the Patriots' first drive. He planted his left leg awkwardly, and had to be carted to the locker room after being helped to the sideline.
"We're sick," Leland Welker told the Globe. "We're absolutely sick. We take all those hits and stuff all season long. And then just one fluke cut, and he just blows it out."
The Patriots released no details about the extent of Welker's injury. He led the NFL with 123 catches this season.
His mother, Shelley Welker, told the Boston Herald her son was "very, very upset."
Said Shelley Welker to the paper, "it's one of those where it's a cut he makes all the time. And I don't know what happened. But just say your prayers for him and hope it's not anything bad." -- Sean Leahy
