Bengals’ Ja’Marr Chase evaluated for a concussion after 2nd-quarter hit vs. Jaguars

Cincinnati Bengals' star wide receiver Ja'Marr Chase is being assessed for a concussion following a significant hit in the second quarter of Sunday's match against the Jacksonville Jaguars. The incident unfolded when Chase, who had initially caught a pass from quarterback Joe Burrow and was subsequently tackled by Jacksonville cornerback Jarrian Jones, was hit by linebacker Ventrell Miller, who completed the tackle.

Chase was visibly disoriented as he lay on the ground for a couple of minutes before entering the medical tent. Despite having already contributed 18 receptions for 185 yards and three touchdowns, as well as three more receptions for 26 yards during the initial 18 minutes of the game, Chase's condition is being closely monitored.
