Earl Bennett in a car accident

Hit by a drunk driver. Sounds like he's unhurt, which is fantastic news.

Update: Vaughn McClure reporting that DJ Moore was in the car with Bennett, but both are okay and working out at Halas Hall today.

Probably a Vikings fan

trying to set themselves up for a win next week.

Seriously though, DUI folks need to be taken out back and shot. Just because you don’t care about hurting yourself doesn’t give you the right to put others at risk.

I can't stand fair-weather/bandwagon fans, stick with your team(s), throughout the good and the bad. And don't switch to whichever team wins the Super Bowl each year.

Glad he's okay, great to hear there working out today, I'm pretty sure they could have ask for the day off with that happening to them.

Lost a friend that served in the Air Force(just a couple months ago) from a drunk driver. Just hard to believe at times. Glad Earl and D.J. are okay.

Guess it wasn’t meant for me to have that car oh well!
