Rookie tight end T.J. Hockenson was carted to the locker room after taking a scary fall on his right shoulder in the third quarter of the Detroit Lions' game against the Kansas City Chiefs.

Hockenson was injured with 2:10 to play in the quarter when he caught a 9-yard pass from Matthew Stafford and tried to hurdle Chiefs safety Tyrann Mathieu.

Linebacker Damien Wilson caught Hockenson's left leg while Hockenson was in the air and spun the tight end to the ground.
