Positive signalInjury

Suffered chest injury requiring hospital visit but returned to play same game (Thursday). likely rib cartilage/fracture or pneumothorax ruled out via CT scan; cleared by hospital within ~30 minutes. Caught passes immediately upon return; Love threw him a 'hospital ball' on first play back. Fantasy managers bullish on his toughness ('has that dawg in him') but split on recklessness of return. Some note he was on pace for 30+ points before injury; post-hospital performance likely to decide close matchups. Dominant meme energy (Stone Cold/WWE ambulance angle comparisons) overshadows injury severity concerns.
