SAD EVENT: The Packers’ quarterback was suspended following the game.

On Saturday, August 19, the Packers hosted the Patriots at Lambeau Field in Green Bay, Wisconsin.

New England’s Isaiah Bolden was injured on a 3rd and 7 play from the Patriots’ 25-yard line with 10:38 left in the fourth quarter.

Bolden, a Jackson State freshman, was attended to by medical personnel before being strapped to a backboard and carted off the field.

Both Bill Belichick, head coach of the Patriots, and Matt LaFleur, head coach of the Packers, agreed to end the game at 10:38. The game was called after the coaches agreed.

Soon after the game, the Patriots provided an update on Bolden.

“Patriots cornerback Isaiah Bolden sustained an injury during the fourth quarter of tonight’s game,” the Patriots said on Twitter. “He had feeling in all his extremities, but has been taken to a local hospital for further tests and observation,”
