Oakland Raiders wide receiver Javon Walker was found unconscious on a Las Vegas street corner Monday morning, Fox 5 News in Las Vegas reports. He is currently under hospitalization and is listed in fair condition after suffering an orbital fracture.
Police are not certain how the former Denver Broncos player received the injury to his eye socket. There were reports of him partying over the weekend: Walker was seen Saturday night spraying the crowd at Tryst at the Wynn with some of the 15 bottles of Dom Perignon Rose champagne he ordered.
After a rough departure from the Broncos in March, Walker signed a lucrative $55-million dollar deal with the rival Raiders.
UPDATE: Walker was apparently robbed, according to police, and was seen partying until around 6 AM Monday morning in another bar. The police said he sustained “significant injuries.”
All smack talking aside for the moment, we want to wish Javon the best of luck. Honestly, we’re saddened to hear about this, no matter what may have transpired in the past. The guy has just been a mess since Darrent Williams.
