Monday night’s matchup between the Patriots and Cardinals was marred by a knee injury to Arizona quarterback Kyler Murray. The first quarter also featured a scary incident involving New England wide receiver DeVante Parker that went unnoticed by the officials—and, apparently, the game’s concussion spotter.
Parker took a big hit on an incomplete pass, and could clearly be seen struggling to get to his feet. He was eventually helped up by a teammate, though was still wobbling and having balance issues. Those symptoms persisted even as he lined up for the next play, which was eventually halted for a replay review. Among those to notice the incident was Parker’s teammate, Nelson Agholor, who signaled in his direction and implored him to take a knee so that he could receive medical attention.
