Hull midfielder Ryan Mason says he feels "lucky to be alive" after having surgery on a fractured skull sustained in the Premier League match at Chelsea.
The 25-year-old spent a week in St Mary's Hospital, London after his clash of heads with Chelsea's Gary Cahill.
Both Hull and his former club Tottenham wore training shirts with printed wishes of support for Mason.
No timeframe has been placed on a return to action and Mason added: "I will be taking each day as it comes."
Hull supporters had a minute's applause for Mason in the 25th minute of their League Cup semi-final with Manchester United last week, a reference to his squad number at the club.
