Michael Crabtree says he lost vision after being hit hard in the face near the goal line on third down in February's Super Bowl.

The San Francisco 49ers wide receiver was targeted on the team's last three plays of Super Bowl XLVII.

Crabtree said he took such a shot from Baltimore Ravens cornerback Jimmy Smith that he temporarily couldn't see.

"When the guy hit me, he hit me all in the face," Crabtree told NFL Network. "I'm not tripping. I'm not one to whine about nothing, but he hit me all in the face and I couldn't really see after he hit me."
