There was a scary scene Thursday night when Indianapolis Colts running back Nyheim Hines stumbled following a tackle from a Denver Broncos defender during the team’s 12-9 win in Week 5.
Hines showed gross motor instability (i.e. stumbling/falling after a hit), which is an aspect of the league’s concussion protocol that has become a major topic of discussion. After what happened to Miami Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa just one week prior, everyone knew Hines’ night was finished.
