Detroit Lions wide receiver Charles Rogers broke his collarbone for a second straight year Sunday and might miss most of the season. Rogers, the No. 2 overall pick in the 2003 draft, played only the first five games a year ago because of a broken collarbone, catching 22 passes with three touchdowns. He was injured going for a pass in the first quarter of Detroit's 20-16 win over the Chicago Bears on Sunday. X-rays revealed a fracture near the one he got last year during a bye week practice. The 6-foot-4 Rogers had 22 receptions for 243 yards and three touchdowns in only five games during his rookie campaign. He won the 2002 Biletnikoff Award as the top receiver in college football during his junior season at Michigan State

Man, he's a hard worker, and to see him go down like that is really tough to watch.

He broke his collar bone very close to the same spot as last year so this might be a conditioning issuse. I hope he's not out the whole year again
