Just over a week after he was injured in a car accident in Hawaii, former Redskins and University of Hawaii quarterback Colt Brennan has been released from the hospital.

Brennan issued a statement in which he said he was thankful for his own health and the health of his girlfriend, Shakti Stream. Theresa Wang, who was driving the other car in the accident, is still hospitalized.

“It is with heavy heart that I am able to leave the hospital today, as my prayers and thoughts remain with Theresa Wang and her family,” Brennan said in the statement. “I am so grateful for all of the support I received over the past week. I am also relieved that Shakti is close to a full recovery. I ask that the same support I received be directed to Ms. Wang as she recovers from this unfortunate accident.”

Brennan said he wants to continue working toward getting completely healthy because “my desire to continue playing football burns stronger than ever.”

The crash is still being investigated. No charges have been filed.
