Both teams came together in the fourth quarter after a scary scene occurred at Lambeau Field on Saturday night. 

The New England Patriots were competing against the Green Bay Packers in the second preseason game of the 2023 season when Isaiah Bolden collided with fellow teammate Calvin Munson and appeared to suffer an apparent head injury. 

He remained down on the field, with medical personnel immediately being called over. He was ultimately loaded onto a stretch and carted off. 

While the entire team huddled together, praying for their teammate, Bill Belichick stood with Packers head coach Matt LaFleur along with the officials and Patriots captain Matthew Slater. 

After a long discussion they decided to suspend the game. 

The game ended with 10:29 remaining in the fourth quarter, with the Patriots leading 21-17. 

Bolden was drafted by the Patriots in the seventh round of the 2023 NFL Draft. A cornerback out of Jackson State, Bolden is looking to compete for a spot on the active roster.
