Denver Broncos quarterback Russell Wilson departed Sunday’s 34-28 home loss against the Kansas City Chiefs in the fourth quarter due to a concussion.
Wilson was injured while scrambling for 14 yards to the Kansas City 2-yard line and took a hard hit from Chiefs defensive end Frank Clark with just more than 12 minutes remaining in the contest. Denver players immediately signaled for the training staff.
Wilson was initially prone on the turf and later stood up while being examined by team trainers. He walked to the sideline under his own power and eventually headed to the locker room.
Wilson was 23-of-36 passing for 247 yards, three touchdowns and one interceptions before exiting.
Brett Rypien replaced Wilson and completed 4 of 8 passes for 16 yards, one touchdown and one interception.
