Ole Miss starters Greg Hardy and Dexter McCluster were involved in a two-car accident over the weekend, (ESPN.com's Joe Schad is reporting).
Rebels head coach Houston Nutt told Schad that a vehicle pulled out in front of the pair's vehicle, striking them on the front passenger side. The force of the impact pushed the tire into the engine compartment, causing the car to burst into flames.
According to Nutt, it could've been a lot worse than what it was.
"They are very, very fortunate," Nutt said. "If [the other driver] had hit them in a little bit different place, it could have been even worse."
Hardy,who suffered a damaged foot, during the season, aggravated it during the accident. The defensive end will be in a boot for the next 5-7 days.
There was no word on what if any injuries McCluster suffered, although the wide receiver, along with Hardy, will be examined by team medical personnel today.
