(AP) --- Philadelphia Eagles running back Ja'Quinden Jackson was taken off the field in an ambulance after being injured on the opening kickoff Saturday night in a preseason game against the New England Patriots. The Eagles announced that Jackson had strength and movement in all extremities and had been taken to a hospital for further evaluation. Jackson was on the kickoff team and made the tackle on New England's Lan Larison but laid motionless seconds after the play was over. Trainers rushed in almost immediately as medical personnel from both teams attended to Jackson. They quickly called for a backboard and ambulance. Players from both teams knelt near the sideline as he was strapped onto a stretcher. Eagles players then surrounded Jackson briefly before he was loaded into the ambulance. Jackson could be seen briefly raising his left arm. Play resumed a few minutes later. Backup quarterback Tanner McKee said afterward that they were told postgame that Jackson was OK. "A lot of different emotions just praying and hoping that he's OK," McKee said. "Word was going around that he was talking, he was responsive and moving. That kind of got everybody to settle down a little bit and we know our teammate is doing OK." ___ See AP's full NFL coverage here
