(December 24, 2007)--For a few fleeting moments it seemed like nothing had changed in Port Arthur native Kevin Everett's life.
The 25-year-old tight end walked through the Buffalo Bills locker room Sunday, greeting his teammates one by one.
Eerett's triumphant return to Ralph Wilson Stadium came less than four months after he sustained a spinal cord injury during a tackle in the season-opener against Denver.
Everett was paralyzed from the neck down when he arrived at Buffalo's Millard Fillmore Gates Hospital and spent the first few days on life support.
He underwent surgery.
He later was moved to Houston for rehab.
After meeting with his teammates, Everett left the locker room in a wheelchair and, on his own power, climbed into a covered electric car.
