WASHINGTON | Washington Redskins kick returner Brandon Banks is still hospitalized two days after he and a friend were stabbed during an altercation outside a downtown D.C. nightclub.
Banks’ agent James Gould released a statement Monday saying that Banks is still at a local hospital as a precaution, but he is expected to be released within 24 hours.
Gould said Saturday that Banks received a surface wound to his side that required stitches and was expected to be released Sunday. He said Banks’ friend was critically injured and underwent surgery.
The stabbing occurred early Saturday outside an upscale nightclub. D.C. police say a man got into a verbal altercation with two men and stabbed them. Police did not identify the victims, but the Redskins confirmed that Banks was injured in the attack.
