East Lansing — Michigan State coach Mark Dantonio said during his weekly news conference on Tuesday that quarterback Brian Lewerke did not go through concussion protocol during Saturday’s loss to Illinois, even after Lewerke was hit in the head and was slow to get up off the field.
“No, we didn't go through any protocol,” Dantonio said Tuesday as Michigan State prepared for Saturday’s game at Michigan. “We looked at him very quickly. I asked him and he said he's good, and he motioned that to our trainers, as well, so he just went on with it.
