Report: Gaither has movement in arms, legs

By Scevenson

(NECN: Foxborough, Mass.) - Baltimore Ravens left tackle Jared Gaither was taken off the field on a stretcher during Sunday's game against the New England Patriots.

Gaither, 6-foot-9 and 330 pounds, was injured after a freak collision in the backfield, in which quarterback Joe Flacco was driven into the helmet of Gaither by defensive end Ty Warren. Both Ravens went down to the ground, but Flacco quickly returned to his feet.

CBS Sports play-by-play man Jim Nantz said just before halftime of the broadcast that Gaither was being brought to Massachusetts General Hospital in Boston. He also said that Gaither had movement in all of his extremities.
