Xavier Rhodes' hamstring injury 'very minor'
                  

Coach Mike Zimmer said Monday that Xavier Rhodes escaped with a "very minor" hamstring injury.
Rhodes' injury looked serious on the field, but a Monday MRI apparently showed he escaped with a day-to-day ailment. Rhodes' status for Week 13 against the Patriots remains uncertain and probably won't become clear before Friday.

He was employed by the Chargers. He has faced multiple legal issues including negligence and malpractice. Whenever he tweets something, that always comes to mind for me.
