Tampa Bay Buccaneers defensive end Jason Pierre-Paul suffered a potential season-ending fractured neck in a single-car accident last week in South Florida, league sources told ESPN's Adam Schefter on Tuesday.
Pierre-Paul will be visiting with neck specialists at some point this week to get their opinions, with the hope that a portion of this season can be saved.
The car accident was a single-car accident in Broward County. Pierre-Paul was not cited for the accident.
"We have been informed that Jason was involved in a one-car accident early this morning in South Florida in which he was not cited," Buccaneers general manager Jason Licht said in a statement that the team released last week.
