We have our second member of a chain gang going down with an injury today, as one more had to be removed from the field during the Texans and Bears gang.
Early on in the third quarter, an elder member of the chain gang tripped over a sign on the side and smashed his head on the ground.
He would not up.
Medical personnel would come out to check on him as play halted between the Bears and Texans.
The Week 2 game between the Baltimore Ravens and Las Vegas Raiders was briefly delayed after a member of the NFL’s chain gang suffered a medical emergency on the sideline during that game as well.

The Ravens provided an update on the chain gang worker shortly after he was taken off the field. The team posted a statement to X (formerly Twitter) that the employee was “alert and responsive” upon leaving the field and was taken to a local hospital.
Just like in that game, we should expect an update on the chain gang member in the Texans-Bears contest on Sunday Night Football.
