Matthew Stafford Concussion: NFLPA Investigating Rams QB’s Status

Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford left Sunday’s game against the Saints and was evaluated for a concussion for the second time in three weeks, and the NFL players union is looking into the situation.

The NFLPA is “monitoring” how the team handles Stafford this week, according to ProFootballTalk. In general, both the league and the union have been more judicious regard to the handling of concussions after Tua Tagovailoa’s injury earlier this year.

Stafford was put into concussion protocol the first time this year on Nov. 9, which resulted in him missing last week’s game against the Cardinals.
