EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. -- The game ball went to Isaiah Pead.
Pead, who spent the previous four years as a backup running back for the Rams in St. Louis, is in critical condition after being involved in a single-car accident in Columbus, Ohio, over the weekend. Pead was in the hearts and minds of several of his former teammates during Sunday's 9-6 win over the New York Jets, and Los Angeles Rams coach Jeff Fisher planned to send a game ball to his family.
"I spoke with his mom yesterday," Fisher said before he left the podium.
