Cincinnati Bengals punter Kevin Huber got laid out on a punt return by Pittsburgh Steelers linebacker Terrence Garvin this last weekend. The hit left him with a broken jaw and a cracked vertebra in his neck, ending his season.
While that might cause some to be down in the dumps, Huber is handling the situation very well and has even made some humorous jokes about it on his Twitter.
First he changed his avatar to a picture of the hit.
And now by popular demand.. I have found a pic worthy of my new avatar! Enjoy everyone

Since he has a broken jaw and can’t eat solid food, he had some fun straw shopping and share the tough decisions he faced.

He thought this liquid diet might help him lose weight, he was wrong.
I want to thank United Dairy Farmers for the much needed ice cream! So much for losing weight... pic.twitter.com/UjzzuaEq4w
