Raiders injury news: Jimmy Garoppolo is in NFL’s concussion protocol

Jimmy Garoppolo had a rough debut as the Las Vegas Raiders’ quarterback at Allegiant Stadium and he was consistently hit in a 23-18 defeat to the Pittsburgh Steelers on Sunday night.

Garoppolo was sacked four times (after not being sacked in the first two games) and he threw three interceptions in the game and leads the NFL with six picks. Things got worse Monday, as Las Vegas coach Josh McDaniels told reporters that Garoppolo is in the NFL’s concussion protocol. He was checked for a concussion after the game and thus did not speak to reporters.
