Cowboys Claim Former First-Round Pick After Eagles’ Second Waiver in 18 Hours

Former Chiefs QB Stabbed and Seriously Injured on His Way to Broadcast NFL Game Between Colts and Raiders Indianapolis, IN — A shocking incident has shaken the sports world as Mark Sanchez, former Kansas City Chiefs quarterback and current FOX Sports analyst, was stabbed early Saturday morning in downtown Indianapolis, just hours before he was scheduled to call the Indianapolis Colts vs. Las Vegas Raiders game. According to the Indianapolis Metropolitan Police Department (IMPD), officers responded to reports of a violent altercation involving a weapon around 12:30 a.m. near a downtown hotel. Upon arrival, they found Sanchez on the ground with multiple stab wounds to his upper torso. He was immediately transported to a nearby hospital in critical condition. As of Saturday evening, reports confirmed that Sanchez is now in stable condition and recovering from his injuries. Initial police findings suggest that the incident began as a dispute between Sanchez and the driver of a grease transport truck. Witnesses say Sanchez approached the vehicle, opened the door, and began arguing with the driver. The situation escalated quickly, leading the driver to use pepper spray and then a knife in what he claimed was self-defense after Sanchez allegedly became aggressive. Authorities have since confirmed that Sanchez is facing several misdemeanor charges, including battery with injury, unlawful entry of a motor vehicle, and public intoxication. Because of his medical condition, he has not yet been booked into jail. Following the incident, FOX Sports announced that Brady Quinn, another former NFL quarterback who spent a season with the Chiefs and several with the Browns, will fill in for Sanchez during Sunday’s broadcast. Sanchez remains hospitalized and under medical supervision as the investigation continues. The police have described the incident as isolated, with no further threat to the public. The news has sent shockwaves through both the NFL community and sports media circles. Once known for his playoff runs with the New York Jets and later as a familiar voice in NFL broadcasting, Mark Sanchez now finds himself at the center of a disturbing and unexpected tragedy — one that has left fans stunned and colleagues deeply concerned for his recovery.
