Brian Allee-Walsh of NewOrleans.com has an eyewitness account of New Orleans Saints tight end Jeremy Shockey's seizure today in the team's weight room.

"It was a little scary; it looked like maybe a mild seizure or a full body cramp or something," the anonymous player said. "There were a decent amount of guys in the weight room at the time. At first nobody really knew what was going on, but the trainers took control of the situation after a while.

"He was shaking and everything, and he was basically out of it for probably a minute or so, but it seemed longer. After he started coming back everything was pretty much all right. He seemed aware and everything seemed OK after a while. He got up and was walking around."

Allee-Walsh adds that Shockey will undergo tests to determine the cause of the seizure.

"I talked to Jeremy from the hospital and the good news is he’s feeling better and everything looks real good," Saints head coach Sean Payton said at 4pm local time on Thursday.

"He’ll likely finish up his tests and spend the night in the hospital. They don’t know if it was dehydration or what. That’s what they’re going through right now. They just want to make sure it’s nothing more significant than that."
