Charles Gordon Becomes the Joe Theisman of Punt Returners

In the first half of today's 28-27 win over the Packers, the Vikings lost punt returner Charles Gordon to a nasty leg injury. Gordon fielded a Derrick Frost punt and was immediately snowed by Desmond Bishop of the Packers. His ankle got rolled up under Bishop and, well, the lower part of the leg isn't supposed to turn quite as far as Gordon's did.

Gordon broke his leg and will miss the rest of the season.
