The NFL Players Association has agreed to changes to the concussion protocol and is urging the NFL to do the same before Sunday's games kick off.
The announcement comes in the wake of a review over how Miami Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa's concussion evaluation was handled in Week 3.
"Our union has agreed to change the concussion protocols to protect players from returning to play in the case of any similar incident to what we saw on September 25," the NFLPA Board and Executive Committee said in a statement Friday. "We would like these changes to go into effect before this weekend's games to immediately protect the players and hope the NFL accepts the changes before then as well.
