Jets wide receiver Brad Smith took a vicious hit from San Francisco LB Patrick Willis late in the Jets loss to the 49ers. He was on the ground for several minutes. What exactly is the nature of his injury?

"He’s getting evaluated today," said Eric Mangini on Monday. "I’ll probably know more Wednesday for you."

It's surprising, that in the year 2008, with all the advancements in medicine, that Mangini didn't have any information on a player's injury 24 hours later.

But you know what was even more surprising than that, is that no reporter asked a follow-up question.

It looks like Smith suffered either a neck or head injury, or possibly both.
