JuJu Smith-Schuster Injury: Chiefs Wideout Exits After Big Hit

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver JuJu Smith-Schuster exited to the locker room after appearing to suffer a concussion on an incompletion in the second quarter against the Jaguars.

By video, Smith-Schuster exited concussion symptoms (posturing) after taking a helmet-to-helmet hit from Andre Cisco.

A flag was thrown on the play, but was picked up.

If confirmed, this would be Smith-Schuster's fourth concussion of his career. No two concussions are the same, but he may require more time to recover because of his numerous concussions.

Through Week 9, 22.8% of players have cleared concussion protocol and been able to play in the next week.

The Chiefs face the Chargers in Los Angeles in Week 11.

Smith-Schuster finishes the day with two catches for 33 yards.
