Casey Aldridge could have been screwed, but got real lucky -- he's going to recover from this morning's car accident.
We just spoke with a close family member/Baptist preacher who says Aldridge did not have surgery, but did suffer mild brain trauma.
As we first reported, Casey and 3 other passengers were in a single car accident early this morning in Louisiana.
His F-250 flipped over and Aldridge was airlifted for treatment.
The family member said Aldridge suffered a "skull fracture around his hairline" and will be kept at the University of Mississippi Medical Center for 2-3 days for observation.
Jamie Lynn Spears is at his bedside.
We're also told one passenger suffered a broken collarbone, one is getting X-rays on his hip and the third just suffered some bruising.

Just days after Matthew Broderick broke his collarbone in a freak horse riding accident, the actor is getting back in the saddle (so to speak). The "Producers" star was spotted roaming the streets of New York City yesterday, his bad arm resting in a sling.

The mishap occurred while the "Ferris Bueller" star was horseback riding at his holiday home in Ireland. Broderick was treated at a local hospital and was accompanied by his wife, Sarah Jessica Parker.
Our question ... how did he light that cigarette?
