Head on hit from a bronco player. Injured his spine and was for all intense purposes paralyzed from the next down. However, due to an experienced EMT he was given cold saline iv in the ambulance and basically froze his spine He does have movement in his legs as of today.

On September 9, 2007, in the opening game for the 2007 NFL Season, while attempting to tackle Denver Bronco Domenik Hixon, Everett sustained a neck injury that resulted in his transport off the field by ambulance. The way it happened is that when he attempted to takle Domenik Hixon he hit Hixon head first which caused his neck to thrust back to fracture Everett's spine.

He got hurt making a tackle on a kick-off while going in for the tackle he ducked his head. In which the impact bruised his spine and left him temporarily paralyzed.
