Patriots' Patrick Chung exits Super Bowl LIII with air cast on arm

Feb. 3 (UPI) -- New England Patriots safety Patrick Chung suffered a serious arm injury Sunday against the Los Angeles Rams in Super Bowl LIII.

Chung's arm got caught between two players on a tackle attempt early in the third quarter. The safety rolled around on the turf in pain and had an air cast placed on his right arm.

Officials brought out a golf cart for Chung, but he refused and walked toward the locker room under his own power.

The Patriots ruled out Chung for the remainder of the game. Duron Harmon replaced Chung in the Patriots' secondary.

New England led the Rams 3-0 in the third quarter when Chung exited the game.
