| 2nd December, 2008 - 4:47 pm |  ESPN - Richard Collier, the former Jaguars' lineman who was shot in September and had his leg amputated, said Tuesday that he "remembers everything."
He didn't think he had been injured initially. Only when he heard paramedics counting his injuries did he realize he'd been struck.
"When I got in the ambulance, I remember they were counting bullets," Collier, who was shot 14 times, said. "I was like man, that's a lot."
He is now paralyzed from the waist down.
