This is what Chargers wide reciever Malcolm Floyd to his teammate Kennan Allen…
“It’s tough, so I’m saying a prayer for my brother. He’s a great player. He’s one of a kind and was on his way to a historical season. But injuries are part of the game, and I’m sure he understands that. He’ll come back even stronger.”
“We just have to step up even more. He really is a one of a kind receiver who can do everything. He plays at a high level, so we have to step up more.”
