It was a scary moment for Tennessee Titans fans on Sunday when wide receiver Treylon Burks was knocked unconscious and carted off the field. The rookie wide receiver was hit in the head by an opposing player during the fourth quarter of the Titans’ game against the Houston Texans. After being evaluated by medical personnel on the field, Burks was placed in the concussion protocol.
The hit on Burks was a hard one, and it was clear that he was in a great deal of pain. He lay motionless on the field for several minutes before being taken off on a stretcher. The Titans’ medical staff quickly evaluated him and determined that he had suffered a concussion. As a result, he was placed in the concussion protocol.
The concussion protocol is designed to ensure that players who have suffered head injuries are given proper care and treatment. It includes a series of tests that are used to determine the severity of the injury and whether or not the player should be allowed to return to the field.
At this time, it is unclear how long Burks will be out of action. He will need to pass all of the tests in the concussion protocol before he can be cleared to return to play. Until then, he will need to rest and allow his body to heal.
The Titans are hoping that Burks will make a full recovery and be able to return to the field soon. In the meantime, they will need to find a way to replace his production on offense. It is a difficult situation for the team, but one that they will need to manage as best they can.
The safety of players is always the top priority in football, and it is encouraging to see that the Titans took the necessary steps to ensure that Burks received proper medical attention after his injury. Here’s hoping that he makes a full recovery and is able to return to the field soon.
