Carson Wentz Praised for
Reporting Concussion.
Wentz was knocked out of Sunday's
playoff game after a helmet-to-helmet
hit by Seattle's Jadeveon Clowney.
The Eagles' quarterback reported
concussion systems on the sideline and
was taken to the locker room for evaluation.
The NFL's chief medical officer called Wentz's act "heroic.".
I think what Carson Wentz did is heroic and should be highlighted as an example of how an unbelievably skilled and competitive athlete understands the seriousness of
concussion injury. , Dr. Allen Sills, via Associated Press.
So I applaud Carson Wentz for understanding how serious this injury is and for getting appropriate care that he needs. , Dr. Allen Sills, via Associated Press.
Veteran quarterback Josh McCown replaced
Wentz and kept the game close.
but the Philadelphia Eagles lost
17-9 to the Seattle Seahawks
