Smart move when no team has signed you yet.

Free-agent linebacker LaVar Arrington was seriously injured in a motorcycle accident in the Washington, D.C., area, the player's agent told ESPN.com on Monday.
Carl Poston said it was his understanding that Arrington suffered a broken bone in his arm, three broken bones in his leg, cuts and bruises. The injuries do not appear to be life-threatening. He is recovering at Prince George's Hospital Center. Arrington, a former Pro Bowl linebacker for the Washington Redskins, is not currently under contract to any team. The 28-year-old Arrington is still rehabilitating an Achilles tendon tear that cut short his 2006 season with the New York Giants.

i was just reading that too and that was my first thought. hard to feel bad for a dumbass like that.

Makes his resale value go down. Hope he is ok though.

Doesn't sound life-threatening, but a broken arm and three broken bones in your leg doesn't sound like a quick recovery -- at least to football shape.

Especially during this time of the year.

I thought I heard that he was likely going to have to sit out this season anyway.

Not that it's less stupid.....

I bet his wife was pissed.

how many crashes need to happen before athletes understand to NOT get on a bike in their primary income producing years...jesus.

two more

I think the number is closer to infinity. We all know that youth never learns from others mistakes.

Ben R's motorcycle accident: Monday, June 12, 2006
Lavar Arrington's accident: Monday June 18, 2007

It's almost as if Lavar was celebrating Ben's 1 year anniversary of stupidity. At least Lavar wore a helmet, I'll give him credit for that.

Just think......if he was playing for the Eagles, he'd be simply Invincible.

He'll be back. Hes a soldier.

Wait, thats the other guy
