Lamar Houston from the Chicago Bears will have to re-think his celebration technique after injuring himself celebrating a sack he made against the New England Patriots.

You’d almost let him away with it if it was a very decisive sack in a close-fought game, but no, the Bears were being pummelled by the Patriots and this was in the fourth quarter of a game which ended 51-23 in favour of New England. It may have stemmed from frustration or whatever, but injuring your knee whilst celebrating an insignificant sack is plain silly.

The word on NFL street is that he is out for the rest of the season with a knee injury. Houston…we have a problem.
