KNOXVILLE, Tenn. -- New York Jets running back Cedric Houston was injured in a one-car accident late Friday night.

He was taken to the University of Tennessee Medical Center where he was treated for injuries that were not considered life threatening and released.

The former Tennessee standout was a passenger in a car that went up an embankment on a rural stretch of Interstate 40, about 50 miles west of Knoxville, and hit a tree stump, Tennessee Highway Patrol officials told Knoxville television station WATE.

Charges were not immediately filed against the driver.

The Jets would not comment Saturday on Houston's injuries because he has yet to be examined by a team doctor.

Jets' Houston breaks wrist

Jets running back Cedric Houston suffered a broken wrist and several cuts and bruises on his face and hands in a one-car accident late Friday night in Tennessee, one of his agents said yesterday.

Houston, a second-year pro, is expected to be sidelined two to four weeks and will miss a minicamp for rookies and first-year players which begins May 12. The former Tennessee star was kept overnight at the University of Tennessee Medical Center and released Saturday.

"It's nothing serious at all," agent Safarah Lawson said yesterday. "He suffered some cuts on his head, over his eye and sustained a cut on a finger that required stitches. But he should be fine for the veterans' minicamp in (mid)-June."

Houston, 23, was a passenger in a car that went up an embankment on a rural stretch of Interstate 40, about 50 miles west of Knoxville, and hit a tree stump.

Last season, the 6-foot, 220-pounder started four games for an injured Curtis Martin and finished with 302 yards and two touchdowns on 81 carries.

Gotta love those one car accidents. That damn black dog always jumping out in the road in front of poor unsuspecting drivers and causing accidents.

I wonder how many drinks it takes to hallucinate a black dog.
