The third quarter of Friday's game between the Hamilton Tiger-Cats and Edmonton Eskimos produced a scary sight for Ticats fans.

Defensive back Derrius Brooks was stretchered off the field after colliding with fellow defensive back Dominique Ellis. Brooks was tended to by the Ti-Cats' training staff, and could be seen moving his extremities as he was being removed from the field.

The Eskimos were leading the game 15-11 when Brooks suffered the injury, and the game was delayed for approximately 11 minutes.
