Good news, Tracy Morgan fans!
The comedian has been transferred from the hospital to a rehab center after showing signs of improvement. But Morgan’s rep, Lewis Kay, says that his journey isn’t over yet.
“Tracy has been transferred to an undisclosed rehab center, where he is expected to remain for the next few weeks,” Kay told The Wrap. “While he is continuing to show signs of improvement, he still has a long way to go.”
Kay also passed along the 30 Rock alum’s thanks and praises to everyone at the New Jersey hospital where he received his care.
“He and Megan wanted to publicly express their deepest gratitude to everyone at Robert Wood Johnson University Hospital for the unbelievable care and attention they provided him.”
Tracy Morgan landed in the hospital for a few weeks after a June 7 fatal crash on the New Jersey Turnpike left him and three others severely injured. Comedian did not survive.
Kevin Roper, the Walmart truck driver who plowed into Morgan’s limo bus, pled not guilty to the charge of death by auto. The National Transportation Safety Board's investigation revealed that Roper was speeding just before the accident occurred.
