She is correct. It is a miracle that no vital organs were impacted by that bullet. The chances of missing his liver AND a lung are the closest thing to zero.

In the video I saw, where you could see the bullet would spot - I was pretty shocked that nothing vital got hit and it was a through and through. Getting shot in the chest and nothing vital being hit seems pretty unlikely, good for him.

The miracle was that the gun was not pointed at a vital area when it discharged. As it is, the bullet must have passed just under the skin in a fleshy area but no deeper.

Outside chance he will miss more time for the hamstring than being shot in the chest. lol

Odds are even higher....that what takes the longest is coming off meds that he likely is taking, that would fail a PED test.....

I would bet money he is on some pretty good steroids to help heal that wound, and off set the chance for infection.

I had a buddy fall off a boat and rip his leg open on a cleat...he had all kinds of steroids to help him heal and keep inflammation down.

With a chest wound in the proximity of all kinds of important organs....I would bet they got him on stuff the NFL would frown over.

he might get a too-fer....help heal his chest, and help heal his shoulder.

I'm not expecting him to play or anything but since the bullet didn't hit anything and passed through - it's essentially two small incisions that need to heal up and he should be fine?

ricky is 6'3 - I wonder if the kid who shot him was on the shorter side. 5'6 or so.

Glad he's okay, when I saw the news I thought the worst. I'd put him on IR and end his season, honestly don't want him to play like that. s**tty luck, it happens, time to just rest.

Would playing take his mind off it? Having something to do and focus on has to help I would think?

But ir he's in serious condition or gunshot wound to the chest, shouldn't you just rest and heal.

Even if he has a chance to return later this season I think its better to get his shoulder repaired, get him 100% and get someone else off the waiver wire. Red shirting a year is not totally a bad concept. Right now he is probably 5th wr on the depth chart anyway
