Saints’ QB Run Over by Mascot-Mobile

T-Rac, the raccoon mascot of the Tennessee Titans, ran into opposing quarterback Adrian McPherson with a motorized vehicle as the New Orleans Saints were returning from their locker room for the third quarter Saturday night.
From the Tennessean:
The mascot’s vehicle hit McPherson, who stayed on the field for a few minutes being checked out by a trainer on the sideline…
“He got run over by a mascot,” Saints Coach Sean Payton said of the 6-foot-3, 218-pound McPherson, who is the No. 3 quarterback. “We got to play the Titans and you have to worry about the mascots and all the other stuff going on. He’s got a bruise, some kind of contusion.
“When you play a game, your competition is the opponent. When we start having mascots driving around at halftime and all that other stuff, then those are things that are bothersome.”
T-Rac declined to comment.
