Concussion protocol
|
I am a little confused about the concussion protocol now because the Rams and officials did it wrong in Baltimore. The NFL is talking to the NFLPA about why Case Keenum was not removed from the game with a concussion when he struggled to get up after a play and talked to a Rams trainer. What does Gregg Rosenthal call an "ATC spotter" in this article? Does anyone know what the concussion protocol is besides a player being told to get out of the game?

I'm no expert on the topic.
There are certified athletic trainers that are at each NFL game to act as another set of eyes to spot injuries during the game. This year is the first year the NFL is using independent athletic trainers that are not associated with the teams. They have the authority to stop play as necessary if a player is injured and needs help. This was a case where play should have been stopped. By someone.
From what I hear, the athletic trainers were preoccupied with a different situation and didn't even see it.

The problem is, there are supposed to be independent neurologists looking for plays just like this. I was watching the game at the time and it was obvious he got his bell rung. Somebody should have noticed this. Hell, the ref was standing right there and I'm pretty sure he can stop the play. ![[Image: IMG-2758.jpg]](https://i.postimg.cc/W189PNNK/IMG-2758.jpg)

If the head athletic trainer is talking to an injured player on the field, he obviously is not preoccupied with a different situation. The NFL should suspend whoever told the Rams HAT to get off the field. Why did officials think he was talking to the quarterback? |
