NFL wide receiver Terrelle Pryor reportedly was stabbed in the chest and shoulder at a Pittsburgh-area apartment Saturday morning, as first reported by WTAE-TV in Pittsburgh and later by ESPN.

Pryor, 30, was taken to an area hospital for emergency care. After being listed in critical condition, it appears he has made notable progress.  Jeremy Fowler said: "A close family friend of Terrelle Pryor told me the family does expect Pryor to survive the stabbing, and that several family members are by his side post-surgery as doctors monitor his progress. We will be following the story this AM on "

Pittsburgh Police reported to the Heinz Lofts apartment complex on Saturday morning, and WTAE is reporting that a woman whose identity is not known currently is in custody in connection with the stabbing.

The free agent Pryor has played eight seasons in the NFL with the Oakland Raiders, Cleveland Browns, Washington Redskins, New York Jets and Buffalo Bills. He was signed by the Jacksonville Jaguars before being released earlier this season and has not appeared in an NFL game this season.
