NFL concussion protocol was followed when Bills QB Josh Allen was evaluated in Houston, league says
The NFL and its players association say the required steps were followed when Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen was evaluated for a concussion last week at Houston and cleared to return to the game. The league and the NFL Players Association said Friday they reviewed reports from the unaffiliated neurotrauma consultant and booth spotters and “those reports confirm that the steps required by the league’s concussion protocol were followed.” Allen left the game with roughly six minutes to play after his helmet slammed to the turf following an incomplete pass. He went into the medical tent for observation and returned.
