Houston Texans quarterback Tom Savage appeared to shake slightly after taking a brutal hit.
Savage was hammered during a Sunday game against the San Francisco 49ers.

The craziest part is that he then returned to the game.

Answer me this….how can an independent neurologist look at that Tom Savage play & somehow clear him to go back in?

He was eventually pulled out of the game with a concussion.

That is an incredibly scary moment for Savage and for everybody watching. Just horrifying. I can’t remember if I’ve ever seen something like that before. Hopefully he gets whatever medical help he needs. I also have no idea how you could ever justify putting him back in the game. He should have been instantly taken to a hospital.
