Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Dwayne Bowe was kneed in the back by a Cleveland Browns defender and exited Sunday's game.
Bowe was blocking on a running play and received a knee to the back from a Browns player. The move didn't look intentional but the Browns player got Bowe pretty good on the left side of his back.
Trainers came out to tend to Bowe, who took a knee on the field.
Bowe went to the sidelines where trainers continued to tend to him while he sat on the bench. It's unclear what his exact status is, but Bowe didn't look like someone who was going to be gone for a while.
