New York Jets assistant coach Greg Knapp is battling life-threatening injuries sustained in a bicycling accident last Saturday near his home in Danville, California.
Knapp, 58, was struck by a single motorist at approximately 2:49 p.m., according to the San Ramon Police Department. Based on the preliminary investigation, drugs and/or alcohol were not a factor, police said. The driver of the vehicle, whose name is being withheld, is cooperating with police.
It happened on a busy intersection that includes a traffic light, about 27 miles east of Oakland.
Knapp's family and Jets coach Robert Saleh released statements Tuesday, confirming the accident and asking for prayers.
