Reggie Bush Breaks Leg - 'It Hurt Like Hell'
Sept. 21 2010, Published 9:00 a.m. ET
Kim Kardashian’s ex-boyfriend Reggie Bush broke his leg during a football game Monday, RadarOnline.com can confirm.
Bush suffered the injury to his right fibula in the fourth quarter of his New Orleans Saints’ 25-22 win over the San Francisco 49ers. The injury’s expected to keep him out of football action for at least six weeks. .
"It hurt like hell," Bush said after the game. "I got back up and tried to walk on it. It felt terrible ... I don't know what happened or how it happened."
The injury marks another low point for the running back, who last week handed back his 2006 Heisman Trophy amidst a cloud of scandal from his days at USC. A probe found he took money from boosters, and he gave back the coveted trophy voluntarily, though he admitted no wrongdoing.
Bush helped lead New Orleans to a Super Bowl victory over the Indianapolis Colts earlier this year, just prior to his breakup with Kardashian, who recently split with another NFL beau, Dallas Cowboys receiver Miles Austin.
