Has Baker Mayfield had at least 2 concussions?

twostepgiants : 3/17/2018 10:00 am
I was looking up Mayfields on the field troubles and his arrest and came across this article on his concussions s.

“Mayfield suffered a head injury during the second quarter of the Sooners' 30-29 win Saturday over TCU. The Heisman Trophy hopeful took a shot in the back of the helmet from TCU linebacker Ty Summers, who was ejected for targeting.” This was from a game in November 2015.

The article also mentions this:

“He said he also had a concussion in high school five years ago, but "I had all the symptoms then, dizzy and all the vision stuff, but this one wasn't like that. I passed the test at halftime and felt I could go back out there and play, but they wanted to be careful. I understand that and appreciate them looking out for me."

That would be 2 verifiable concussions.

But also check out the footage of his arrest. He takes a serious shot to the head on concrete. His head looks like it bounces. The arrest was in Feb 2017 so he wouldn’t have to go through the concussion protocol for a player.

Check out the video and article and decide for yourself.

All of them, basically. That's why I'm not as concerned about Rosen's history.

Rosen's concussions are worrisome but I assume pretty much every player coming out has had concussions.
Years ago there we no such things of concussions

We were told “you got Your bell rung”. Took a few series off and went back in there. Part of playing the game.
