Jason Pierre-Paul's 911 Call After Car Crash Leaked; Told Dispatcher 'I'm Okay'

Tampa Bay Buccaneers defensive end Jason Pierre-Paul told a police dispatcher his "car just did a 360" during a crash in South Florida on May 2.

On Wednesday, Andy Slater of Slater Scoops obtained audio of the 911 call following the crash, which occurred near Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport.

"I hit the median, but I'm okay," Pierre-Paul said.

Pierre-Paul's Ferrari was traveling at the speed limit (65 mph), but road conditions may have played a role in the incident since it was "wet and raining," per Slater.

On Tuesday, ESPN's Adam Schefter reported the two-time Pro Bowl selection suffered a fractured neck in the single-car crash that could force him to miss the entire 2019 NFL season.

Bucs general manager Jason Licht released a statement about the situation Tuesday but didn't address a timetable for Pierre-Paul to return:

"As we stated last week following the news of Jason's auto accident, our immediate concern was for both Jason and his passenger. While Jason was treated and released in south Florida the same day of the accident, we wanted to ensure that our medical team had an opportunity to perform a thorough evaluation here in Tampa, and that process is currently ongoing."

JPP tallied 58 total tackles, 12.5 sacks and a forced fumble while playing all 16 regular-season games during the 2018 campaign, his first in Tampa. He's registered 28.0 sacks across the past three years, including his final two seasons with the New York Giants.

His 71 sacks since being selected in the first round of the 2010 NFL draft is tied for 14th among all players, according to Pro Football Reference.

Pierre-Paul previously suffered a severe hand injury in a 2015 fireworks accident that forced the amputation of his right index finger.

He's under contract with Tampa through the 2020 season.
