He only came back briefly and had to take another two months off. He admitted that he came back way too soon and it was a mistake. In addition to the puncured lung, he had a fractured vertebra.

He said he was having trouble breathing because of the punctured lung. The bottom line is it was a horrific spill and he was seriously injured. It wasn't one of those spills where a guy has a sore butt, but his pride is injured more than anything. That does happen all the time, but this was not one of those cases.
