Mike Florio Says NFLPA Must Be ‘Aggressive’ Investigating T.J. Watt’s Concussion

As he moves closer and closer to ptoetnailly clearing concussion protocol to play Saturday against the Indianapolis Colts in Week 15, Pittsburgh Steelers’ star linebacker T.J. Watt finds his situation under review by the NFL and the NFLPA.

Watt left the Week 14 Thursday Night Football matchup against the New England Patriots following the first play from scrimmage after taking an errant Ezekiel Elliott knee to the facemask, causing him to be very clearly dazed and lying flat on his back for a few moments, leading to his exit from the game.

The Steelers’ star eventually returned to the game after reportedly spending some time with the unaffiliated neurotrauma consultant, according to a report from Amazon sideline reporter Kaylee Hartung last Thursday.
