It's not Raiders-related, but it sure is very serious.

After being thrown from a pick-up truck and suffering life-threatening injuries, Chris Henry is on life support and the source described the situation as "dire."

Photos from the scene have just been made available.

Our thoughts are with Henry's family during this tough and uncertain time.

Wow

That really sucks for that young man..Im hoping the best for Chris

There he goes. One of God's own prototypes. A high-powered mutant of some kind never even considered for mass production. Too weird to live, and too rare to die.

Update
Chris Henry’s agent, Kenneth Rush, released a statement Wednesday night regarding his client:

“We ask everyone to pray for Chris. We also ask that you respect the privacy of Chris’ family. Chris is indeed battling for his life tonight, and our thoughts and prayers are with him during this extremely difficult time.”

The league will miss him. My heart goes out to his family and teammates

The guy has had his share of tough times. It is not until times like these do we remember that none of us are promised tomorrow. May we all learn that we should treasure today and be the best people we can be for that reason.

The photo of him with his family brought tears to my eyes:

You just never know when your time is coming and I feel terribly for his children. They are so young.
