Broncos' Brian Dawkins Neck injury in the game 40-14 loss to Bills
There is good reason to be worried about Brian Dawkins. And if there's worry about Dawkins, there's good reason to be worried about the Broncos. Denver Broncos' safety Brian Dawkinsa 40-14 loss to the Buffalo Bills on Saturday.

"Don't be worried," Dawkins said. "That's why I didn't finish the game."

It's the fourth time this season he has missed parts, or all, of a game with a neck injury. When a 38-year-old safety known for his willingness to unleash ferocious fury has a neck problem, there are concerns about his well-being.

There are concerns the neck injury could end a distinguished 16-year career that includes eight Pro Bowls.

Dawkins aggravated a neck injury in the first quarter. It's the same injury that forced the 16-year veteran to sit out a 41-23 loss to New England a week earlier.

There are other two injury in the game against -- cornerback Quinton Carter did not return because of a hamstring injury, while safety Chris Harris sustained a pinched nerve while tackling quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick in the fourth quarter.
