Oakland Raiders wide receiver Javon Walker was found unconscious on the streets of Las Vegas with an orbital fracture on Monday morning, according to the city's Fox affiliate.

Walker was taken to the Sunrise Medical Center's Trauma unit, where he was listed in fair condition, according to television station KVVU-5.

As for exactly how the talented 29-year-old received the injury is unknown, but Walker was seen at nightspot Tryst at the Wynn "spraying the crowd with some of the 15 bottles of Dom Perignon Rose champagne he ordered," according to a report in the Las Vegas Review-Journal.

Walker, who signed with the Raiders in the offseason, will step into the No. 1 receiver role vacated by Jerry Porter, who signed with the Jacksonville Jaguars.

A knee injury limited Walker to just eight games with the Denver Broncos in 2007. He had just 26 catches for 287 yards and zero touchdowns.

In 2006, Walker had 69 receptions for 1,084 yards and eight touchdowns with Denver, bouncing back from a serious knee injury that ended his tenure with the Green Bay Packers the previous season.

A first-round pick of Green Bay in 2002, Walker blossomed in 2004 with a career-high 89 catches and 12 TD receptions.

In six seasons with the Broncos and Packers, Walker has 252 career receptions for 3,815 yards and 30 touchdowns.

Is it just me, or is it safer for an NFL player on the field than off it?
