Yesterday, Baltimore Ravens player Kyle Hamilton was ejected from the Sunday morning NFL game following a brutal helmet-to-helmet play, leaving wide receiver Chris Moore wobbling to get up.

During the third quarter of the early Sunday morning game, Tennessee Titans wide receiver Chris Moore made a catch before Baltimore Ravens defender, Kyle Hamilton, came from behind, smacking him with a helmet-to-helmet player, knocking Moore to the ground.

Moore was visibly stumbling when he attempted to get up, before nearly falling back down as his teammates caught him. The wide receiver was then helped to the sideline and into the locker room for further evaluation as Kyle Hamilton was ejected from the game.

According to reports, Hamilton did not agree with his ejection as he was seen cursing as he walked off the field.

The NFL is now taking head injuries much more seriously after Miami Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa suffered two head injuries within five days.

The NFL Players Association reviewed the league’s concussion protocol following the Dolphins quarterback’s quick return to the game on Sunday against the Bills. The NFLPA deemed the UNC made “several mistakes” during the concussion protocol process, multiple sources told ESPN. One of those mistakes included not examining Tagovailoa’s back during the initial concussion examination.

Ataxia was present in Tagovailoa’s case during the Sunday game against the Buffalo Bills, the league’s chief medical officer Dr. Allen Sills said during a press conference.

On October 1, 2022, the NFL and NFLPA agreed on an amended concussion protocol. Now, any player who displays ataxia, which is defined as “abnormality of balance/stability, motor coordination or dysfunctional speech caused by a neurological issue,” must be removed from a game and is not allowed to return.
