Look: Russell Gage Has Message For Fans This Afternoon

Buccaneers take a knee around Russell Gage.

Monday night was pretty scary for Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Russell Gage.

He left the playoff game against the Dallas Cowboys on a stretcher and was sent to the hospital to be further evaluated. He remained in the hospital overnight to undergo additional testing on his neck and has yet to be released. 

After the team released that update, Gage tweeted out an update of his own and said that he was doing "great."

"I appreciate all of the texts, calls, thoughts, and prayers you all have expressed towards my family and I. I just wanted to let you all know that I’m doing great and in great spirits! Thank you!" Gage tweeted.

This is outstanding news, especially after the injury looked really frightening. 

Gage just wrapped up his first season as a Buc after spending the previous four as a Falcon. 

We continue to send our best wishes to him.
