Deer 1, Matt Lauer 0

No word whether he was wearing a helmet like his hero does.

Where in the world is Matt Lauer this morning?

In bed, with a dislocated shoulder.

(No jokes this early...unless you can come up with a better one than he did.)

Matt was off the air this morning - and no word on when he'll return - after running into a deer on his bike over the weekend.

He dislocated his shoulder.
