The Los Angeles Rams and quarterback Matthew Stafford have offered to pay hospital bills for photographer Kelly Smiley, who fractured her spine during the team's Super Bowl parade celebrations on Wednesday, Reuters reported.
"We have been in communication with Kelly Smiley since yesterday's incident and we are sorry for what happened," the Rams and Stafford family said in joint statement shared with Reuters.
"As we told Kelly, we will be covering all her hospital bills and replacing her cameras," the statement said. "We wish her a speedy recovery."
The Rams did not immediately respond to Insider's request for comment.
Smiley could be seen in a video taking a step backward and falling off the stage at the LA Memorial Coliseum on Wednesday following the Rams' Super Bowl parade.
In the video, Stafford seemingly winced and walked away while his wife, Kelly Hall, appeared to walk over and help Smiley after she fell.
Smiley posted a link in an Instagram to a GoFundMe page set up by her friend Tim Kothlow, with a $30,000 goal of covering the photographer's hospital expenses.
The GoFundMe stopped raising funds on Thursday after $48,000 had been donated.
Kothlow said in an update on the GoFundMe page that the fundraiser was being paused until he had "further updates on how to proceed."
