Concussion
Definitely a major concern in my opinion. You just cannot put the health of anyone in jeopardy

RE: Concussion
I watched the replay of the game and tried to see what happened on the play - but the cameras did not catch the hit made on Hook. I have to wonder - was it a legit hit, or was it an illegal blind side hit that wasn't flagged? Hook has been playing long enough to know how to handle a blocker on a kick coverage, so it makes me wonder how he got himself into a position of taking a big hit like that on kick coverage. It would be interesting to see if there were any cameras that caught the hit - but were not used for the streaming cast on ESPN+. I wonder if the coaches will have him sit yet another week. The last thing you want is for him to take another hit - even if it is from him making a tackle. he definitely should not be on kick coverage. Otherwise, his tackling technique should be able to prevent him from taking another hit to the head - which could come from an inadvertent knee to the head when coming up on run support or after a reception with a receiver turning up field. I saw some video of him on the sideline last week. He was staying active in the game and running to the defensive huddle although he was in street clothes with his jersey on.

I would expect him to sit out this game. Actually I’ll be surprised if he plays. Based on reading this article

RE: Concussion
Anything more on Hook playing tomorrow, or how about the RB Stuart. I saw him limping off the field last week against NIU near the end of the game.
