Immediately following Murray’s injury, Peyton Manning reacted with shock and a grimace as he knew what the injury could mean for the young star quarterback.
“Don’t see anything there, but that’s usually not a good sign,” added Eli Manning during the broadcast.
After the commercial break, video showed an emotional Murray being put on the injury cart before getting taken off the field. Teammates and opposing players from the Patriots came over to give words of encouragement for the injured player in a tough moment for fans of the game.
