Erin Andrews was really emotional reporting on frightening Jack Campbell injury

It was a heavy day of work Sunday for Erin Andrews.The longtime Fox sideline reporter was on the field during Jack Campbell’s frightening injury, which made her “really emotional” during the Lions-Vikings game at Ford Field, as she stated on the latest episode of the “Calm Down” podcast with Charissa Thompson.During the fourth quarter of the Lions’ 19-15 home win, Campbell suffered a neck injury when his neck and back seemed to crunch while attempting to tackle Vikings’ tight end TJ Hockenson.The four-year linebacker was motionless on the field and was eventually rushed to a local hospital in an ambulance — an experience Andrews is familiar with since she’s been married to former NHL player Jarret Stoll since 2017.“I get really emotional about this stuff because I’ve been in an ambulance a couple of times with my husband, and it’s just really hard,” Andrews said.“One of my husband’s ex-teammates who had suffered a big time injury is a huge Lions fan.

He texted me on the sidelines and he was just like, ‘How bad is this?”’Andrews revealed that she got a text from trainers saying “Hey, you gotta come down here,” which she admitted was “scary s–t.”The 48-year-old said she also felt bad asking the Lions’ public relations team if they had an update on Campbell.“That’s the hard part of what we do, having to report on it,” she went on.“You don’t want to misspeak.

You just want to handle it with as much grace and let the trainers do their gigs.”When it was clear to Andrews that Campbell had no feeling in his extremities, she said there was an overwhelming sense of confusion among the crowd.“The biggest thing that we saw, and it was happening right away … those poor Lions and Vikings players didn’t know what was going on,” Andrews explained.“The defense has to get back out on that field.

[Lions defensive end] Aidan Hutchinson makes a huge play.He points to the tunnel that they took Jack Campbell up.”�...
