Bucs CJ Wilson is another player who suffered an unfortunate accident this past 4th of July weekend. Its been reported that Wilson has lost two fingers as result of playing with fireworks in his hometown of Lincolton, NC. While no one has commented on whether this will affect his playing career, Wilson’s father has stated that football is the least of their concerns.
“C.J. is doing great. He has a lot of family and friends around him, lots of people coming to send up their prayers. He’s doing good right now,” his father said. “He’s on pain killers. A little bit of pain medicine has him down a little bit but when that wears off – he’s the same old C.J. joking and kidding. . . .
“My son is still living. We just have to take it one day at a time.”
Wilson has been through two surgeries; both his middle and index finger were loss.
