(This story was updated to add new information.)
Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow needed to go to the blue medical tent during “Sunday Night Football” against the New York Giants in Week 6.
During a key third down in the fourth quarter, a Giants pass-rusher ran free up the middle and demolished Burrow as he attempted to make a throw.
While he walked off under his own power, Burrow went to the medical tent with trainers.
No word on the injury, but Burrow was slammed into the turf, and his head bounced, so likely a league-mandated concussion test, at best.
We’ll update with more as more information becomes available.
Update: Burrow eventually left the tent and returned to the sidelines with his team. He then returned to the eventual win. A video of the play:
