Panthers TE Tommy Tremble leaves game after taking frightening hit to head

Carolina Panthers tight end Tommy Tremble left Sunday’s game against the Chicago Bears after taking on a frightening hit from safety Jaquan Brisker.

The hit occurred with just under three minutes remaining in the first half, when Tremble reeled in what would be a 9-yard reception from quarterback Andy Dalton. That 9-yard reception would also be a fumble, one that was recovered by Bears defensive lineman Gervon Dexter.

Chicago proceeded to cash in on the turnover on a subsequent three-play, 44-yard drive to the end zone. Running back D’Andre Swift starred on the possession, as he chalked up a 42-yard catch-and-run and eventually punched in the rock on a 1-yard rush.

Tremble, who underwent evaluation for a concussion, was able to walk back to the locker room. His return to the contest is questionable.
