Nigel Reo-Coker of the Vancouver Whitecaps is an injury doubt for his side's next MLS game after what the league described on its website as an "off-field walking accident."

Reo-Coker, who had stints in the Premier League with Aston Villa and West Ham United, was apparently walking in Vancouver when disaster struck:

This, after the former Aston Villa and West Ham United star suffered a nasty gash to his face while walking the streets of Vancouver on Sunday.

The club has stated the Englishman was looking elsewhere while walking when he tripped over a bike rack, cutting his face and hitting his head in the process.

Accidents happen. Just not often like this.
