Gareon Conley suffered a scary injury on Monday night, but seems to be okay.
The former Buckeye cornerback left Monday night's season opener on a stretcher after a teammate's lower body violently collided with his head on the sideline. But according to Conley, it was totally precautionary and he is "good to go."
Thank you to everybody who had me in their thoughts and prayers.. I hurt my neck nothing severe and it was just protocol to get me on a stretcher and get imaging to make sure everything was ok make sure it didnt go down my spine or anything.. Im good to go God Bless you all

There's been no official update on Conley's status for the Raiders' upcoming game against the Chiefs on Sunday, but the important news is that he does not appear to have suffered a major injury.
Conley also gave an uplifting thumbs up as he was carted off the field, and was joined by former Ohio State teammate and current Denver Bronco Jeff Heuerman who offered his support.
