Ricardo Lockette to firefighters, paramedics: I could have died on the field

The scariest moment of the Seattle Seahawks' 2015 season came when wide receiver Ricardo Lockette suffered a serious neck injury while on punt coverage during a Week 8 game against the Dallas Cowboys.

A hit by Jeff Heath gave Lockette a concussion, along with disk and ligament damage in his neck. He underwent surgery, continues to wear a neck brace and faces a long road to recovery.

Lockette visited with firefighters and paramedics in Redmond, Wa. recently, and in a video posted on Facebook, he explained how close to death he was on the football field.
