Denver Broncos standout defensive back Aqib Talib suffered a gun shot wound to his right leg outside of a Dallas nightclub after a fight reportedly broke out, per 9news.com.
BSN Denver broke the news Monday that Talib's wound was self-inflicted. According to the report, Talib could face legal ramifications.
If we remember, former New York Giant Plaxico Burress was sentenced to two years in prison after he accidentally shot himself in the thigh back in 2008, thanks to New York's strict gun laws.

Talib is incredibly lucky, as ESPN's Adam Schefter detailed the injuries he sustained:
"Bullet entered and exited his leg. Hit no arteries, tore no ligaments. Talib got stitches, no surgery."
This is the second time in more than a year that Talib has been involved in an incident at a Dallas strip club, as he was investigated for aggravated assault back in April 2015.
