Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson insists that his abrupt exit from Monday night's game against the Browns was because of cramps and not because he had to poop, but few are buying his explanation.
While Jackson's incident wound up being comical more than anything, it could have turned really unfortunate had there been some sort of accident in view of cameras.
As it turns out, such unfortunate accidents have happened. Appearing on The Greg Hill Show Thursday morning, OMF host Christian Fauria shared a rather disturbing story about one former teammate who did in fact poop his pants during an NFL game.
"I did play with a guy that actually crapped in his pants while he was playing," Fauria said. "And they stayed out there and played. ... My last year [with the Carolina Panthers], he's gonna kill me for calling out his name, but Jeff King. He was a young tight end out of Virginia Tech. I don't even know who we were playing, but he went up, caught a pass, and they hit him right in the stomach, and he just pooped.
"...He did not want to leave. He was kind of nutty that way. He sat right next to me and I didn't know it and I was like, 'Something smells like crap. What the hell?' He's like, 'I crapped myself.' And I was like, 'And you're still in the game!?' He stayed in. He didn't care."
