A Baltimore Ravens cheerleader was stretchered off the field after apparently landing on her neck during an aerial stunt on Sunday.
The woman, who has not been named, was reportedly thrown into the air during a routine at the Ravens' game against Tennessee Titans at M&T Bank Stadium in Baltimore.
Witnesses said she was dropped by her teammates and landed on her head and neck.
She then reportedly did not move for several minutes as medical personnel rushed on to the field and attended to her, according to CBS Sports.
Getty Images photographer, Rob Carr, who shot photos of the scene, said that although the cheerleader was very still, she could be seen hyperventilating and crying as the game went on.
And not everyone was happy that the game continued while medical personnel attended to the injured woman.

On Sunday evening, a Ravens spokesman told the Baltimore Sun that the "precautionary" tests on the cheerleader's neck had come back clean and she was OK.
