Dolphins-Jaguars game suspended after Daewood Davis suffers scary injury

A preseason game between the Miami Dolphins and Jacksonville Jaguars was suspended Saturday after wide receiver Daewood Davis suffered a scary injury in the fourth quarter.

Davis was on offense when he ran a route to try and catch a pass from James Blackman. He took a hard hit from Jaguars defender Dequan Jackson, who was flagged for unnecessary roughness. However, Davis lay motionless on the field for several minutes and trainers rushed the field to check on him.

Davis was immobilized, and then put on a stretcher and onto a cart before he being taken out of TIAA Bank Field.

Miami and Jacksonville head coaches Mike McDaniel and Doug Pederson met on the field and agreed to stop the game with 8:32 remaining. The Jaguars were leading 31-18.

The Dolphins later offered an update on Davis.

"Dolphins WR Daewood Davis suffered an injury in tonight’s game and has been taken to Baptist Medical Center Jacksonville for further evaluation. He is conscious and has movement in all extremities," the team said.

Tua Tagovailoa, who suffered a couple of serious head injuries last season, spoke about Davis after the game.

"For Daewood, I don’t think he woke up this morning understanding that there are repercussions playing this sport, that this was going to happen," he said. "I don’t think anyone wakes up thinking things like that are going to happen."

He added: "I think it would have been extremely hard for the guys to have gone out and continued to play. The kind of person that Daewood is, a lot of guys respect him. He’s very well respected in the locker room. He’s a great player. He’s a great teammate. He’s a great person. It just would have been hard to have gone back out after seeing something like that."

It was the second game this preseason to be suspended. Last week, the game between the New England Patriots and Green Bay Packers was called off after Patriots cornerback Isaiah Bolden collided with a teammate. He was carted off the field and taken to the hospital. He was released the following day.

California pastor advises all to put our hope in God in tough times: 'Don't give up'

"Thus says the Lord: ‘Keep justice, and do righteousness, For My salvation is about to come, And My righteousness to be revealed’" (Isaiah 56:1). 

This verse comes from 56th chapter of the Book of Isaiah, one of the latter prophets in the Hebrew Bible and the Christian Old Testament

Isaiah, whose name means "the Lord saves," is sometimes referred to as the "prince of prophets," said the website Bible Study Tools. 

It is unclear if Isaiah actually wrote the entirety of the Book of Isaiah. The events in it are believed to have occurred about seven centuries prior to the birth of Christ.

In the verse, "God is speaking a promise to his people in a time of great discouragement," Pastor Chris Fraley told Fox News Digital. 

Fraley is senior pastor of Wildwood Calvary Chapel, located in Yucaipa, California

When God's people were looking at what was happening at the time of the Book of Isaiah, "they don't see any reason to live righteously and to keep justice," said Fraley. 

"God steps in and encourages them through his prophet to live with the anticipation that he is working and that salvation is coming," he said. 

"He reminds them that his righteousness will be revealed."

This serves as a lesson to "don't give up because of what you see" — but rather to "keep going because of what is to come." 

This verse is relevant in the present day, "where two worldviews are clashing," said Fraley.

"One is a secular worldview where the line of morality is always adjusting to the culture," he said. The other "is a biblical worldview where the authority for right and wrong is God's Word." 

He added, "For the child of God, everything must be looked at within our world through the lens of God's Word."

This way of life can prove challenging, as not everyone lives through this lens.

"We can lose hope," said Fraley. "We might ask ourselves, ‘Why is the world falling apart? Where is God in all this? Why is he allowing such horrific sin to continue?’" 

This, he explained, is "what the people were struggling with in Isaiah's day." 

"The Lord reminds his people, ‘Don’t give up because of what you see in the world around you, the injustice, the depravity. Know that I am working, I am watching, and one day soon salvation will come,’" he said.

And while salvation may not be arriving in the near future, a child of God trusts that "it will come in our distant future," said Fraley, "when he calls us home, to our eternal home." 

The message to remain steadfast in the hope of salvation is echoed in the New Testament, said Fraley, when Luke wrote that Jesus told his followers to "look up and lift up your heads, because your redemption draws near." 

"When things get bad, don’t let what you see discourage you," said Fraley. 

"Let it move you to look up to the One who can grant hope to you."
