Jaguars CB Tyson Campbell suffers a concussion

On Saturday afternoon, the organization said Campbell has entered concussion protocol.

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. — CB Tyson Campbell suffered a concussion on Saturday at EverBank Field during practice and will be out per NFL concussion protocol.

The Jaguars were at the stadium for Military Appreciation Day. 

In just the second week of Jaguars training camp, Campbell told reporters what his expectations are for the season. He said, "I want to prove to myself I can be the best corner in the NFL".

The young corner who everyone is expecting to be good this fall has spent much time covering Ridley. He's been hitting his reps.

Campbell said Ridley is a wideout who can run every route, he's fast, has quick good hands and as a defensive back it forces him to have to bring his "A game" every day.

Per the NFL, when a player receives an impact to the head, the player goes into the Concussion Protocol if:

  • the player exhibits or reports symptoms or signs suggestive of a concussion or stinger (a nerve pinch injury); or,
  • the team Athletic Trainer, booth ATC spotter, team Physician, NFL game official, coach, teammate, sideline Unaffiliated Neurotrauma Consultant (UNC) or booth UNC initiates the protocol.

Word on if he'll be ready for the Dallas Cowboys game on Saturday, August 12th has not yet been determined.
