Medical personnel were forced to cut off a Miami Dolphins player's jersey on the field after suffering a scary hit during the team's game against the Houston Texans Sunday.
Receiver Grant DuBose had to be taken off the field on a stretcher after his helmet collided with the helmet of Texans safety Calen Bullock. DuBose's head appeared to hit the ground hard after the play, as reported by the Associated Press.
