The Washington Commanders lost to the Dallas Cowboys on Sunday, 34-26, in a stunning divisional upset. In the process, running back Austin Ekeler suffered a concussion on a hit so severe he was hospitalized out of an abundance of caution.
Ekeler was back to receive the final kickoff of the game with the Commanders down by eight in the final seconds of the fourth quarter. He took an absolutely massive hit from the Cowboys' kick return team and his teammates immediately gestured for the training staff when the play ended. It was a scary scene.
