Bears DB Coleman taken from field in ambulance

KANSAS CITY, Mo. -- Chicago Bears defensive back Douglas Coleman III was taken from the field in a stadium ambulance during Thursday night's preseason game against the Kansas City Chiefs at Arrowhead Stadium.

On the first play from scrimmage of the second half, Coleman was injured while making a tackle. As players from both teams gathered around him on the field, Coleman was placed by medical personnel on a stabilizing board and then a stretcher. His facemask was removed but not his helmet. Then he was put into the back of a Kansas City Fire Department ambulance and taken from the field.

Coleman, 26, played the last two seasons with the CFL's Ottawa Redblacks. He played in college at Texas Tech and began his pro career in 2020 with the Denver Broncos as an undrafted free agent.
