Chicago Bears safety Brandon Hardin tweeted that he's 'gonna be OK' after a neck injury sustained in Saturday's 33-31 win over the Washington Redskins required him to be carted off the field. Here's Hardin's tweet:

Thanks for all the thoughts and prayers. I can't give an exact update, but the good news is that I'm gonna be ok. And we won! Lol

Hardin was injured while attempting to tackle Washington tight end Logan Paulsen. Hardin collided helmet-first with Paulsen's hip and was knocked backwards. The play happened in the third quarter of the game with the Bears leading 27-10 at the time.

The Bears selected Hardin in the third round of this year's NFL Draft out of Oregon State.
