He's a young guy that has not yet learned the meaning or what it takes to be a professional. A trait that happens all too often in the lives of the NFL player. He needs to be pulled aside.....

Banks' agent, James Gould, said the 23-year-old had a tube inserted into his chest to aid his recovery. Redskins athletic trainer Larry Hess relayed through team spokesman Tony Wyllie that the tube was inserted to prevent Banks' left lung from collapsing.

I think we need a new definition for superficial

Re: brandon banks injured at dc nightclub
 

A superficial knife wound to the chest would likely not penetrate the chest cavity. If a knife wound did penetrate the chest cavity then Banks is in danger of having a pneumothorax (the lay term is collapsed lung) which is commonly treated by inserting a chest tube to prevent a more serious complication called a tension pneumothorax. Seen plenty of those in my DC General days...

He's also a little/thin guy so he would likely be fairly susceptible to blunt chest trauma.

I was about to post the same thing. He is so thin, a knife has much less further to travel to puncture a vital organ. I am glad he is ok.
Just as important, I hope he learns from this experience.
The whole Gangsta thug thing needs to stop. Leave that shit to the rappers and other unfortunate souls that find it cool.
