CHARLOTTE, N.C. (AP) — New Orleans Saints tight end Jeremy Shockey has gone to the locker room with injured ribs after scoring a touchdown on his 500th career catch.
Shockey caught a 7-yard pass from Drew Brees late in the first quarter Sunday before he was hit hard by Carolina’s Charles Godfrey. Shockey staggered to his feet and then walked to the locker room.
The Saints said his return is questionable.
The catch gave Shockey 500 catches and 33 touchdowns in his nine-year career.
