Former Duke quarterback Anthony Boone remains hospitalized in Charlotte following two surgeries resulting from a car crash involving Carolina Panthers linebacker Shaq Thompson last weekend.
Boone, a former Weddington High standout, is in Carolinas Medical Center recovering from hand and hip surgeries, his mother told the Observer on Thursday.
“He’s doing good. He’s got a long road back, but he’s getting better,” Jenice Boone said. “Praying every day, praying for strength.”
Boone’s hand surgery was Sunday, hours after the early morning wreck on Potter Road outside of Weddington.
Boone was on his way to a workout at 7:45 a.
