Bengals punter makes the picture of him getting his head ripped off his twitter avatar


Source - Cincinnati Bengals punter Kevin Huber fell victim to one of the most brutal hits of the season on Sunday when Pittsburgh Steelers linebacker Terence Garvin absolutely leveled him during a punt return. The hit helped spring Antonio Brown free for a 67-yard touchdown, but it was probably illegal and left Huber with a fractured jaw and cracked vertebrae. What Garvin was unable to knock out of Huber was his sense of humor.
On Monday, Huber changed his Twitter avatar to the photo you see above and sent the following tweet about it.

When I saw this live I thought for sure Huber was dead. Glad to hear he only fractured his spine and jaw. And just to be clear, this was a not a dirty hit. It's a dream block. Guy chasing laterally, looking back at the ball. Everyone knows you have to keep your head on a swivel in those situations, if not you pay the price. In my opinion, this is the only play you have if you're Huber. Have to share in the laugh with everyone else. If he started whining that it was illegal, or started tweeting about his injuries, he would have been lit up. Gotta hold your head, or whatever is left of it, high, and look everyone in the eye like a man, even if your vision is blurry because of the level 99 concussion you just received.
