Alvin Kamara was placed in concussion protocol after taking a hit to the head in the first quarter of Thursday night’s New Orleans Saints-Atlanta Falcons game.
The Saints tried to set up a screen for Kamara in Atlanta territory, but the Falcons were all over it. The rookie running back was hit hard in the head by Deion Jones, who brought him down immediately.
