NBC Entertainment Chairman Robert Greenblat told reporters that the comedian's drinking is under control, saying: "He goes out and has fun and he's had some accidents."

"We are always worried about his safety and health and yeah, there's been conversations about that," he said on Wednesday.

Fallon’s drinking has reportedly been a cause for concern for some at The Tonight Show after a series of bizarre accidents halted production of the show.

Last June, Fallon almost severed his finger when he tripped and fell in his apartment. At a party in Harvard in October, he fell on a broken bottle slicing his other hand.
