Not everyone knew who Richard Collier was when he played for the Jacksonville Jaguars. Fewer still can probably place the name today.

Let me say at the outset that what happened to Jaguars offensive tackle Richard Collier is horrifying, sickening, completely discouraging. My thoughts and prayers are with him. Nobody should ever have to endure what he is enduring now.

NFL players were so alarmed that Jaguars offensive tackle Richard Collier was shot in his car, that a Texas company that provides armored cars says its business is booming.

Jason Forston, executive vice president of marketing and sales for Texas Armoring Corp., in San Antonio, said his company has received a flurry of inquiries from NFL players seeking to protect themselves.

Jacksonville hopes its offensive tackle Richard Collier can recover from the gunshot wounds he suffered this week. When it comes to their roster, however, the Jaguars had no choice but to move on for now.
