Amari Cooper leaves game with injury after monster hit
Oakland Raiders wide receiver Amari Cooper left Sunday’s game against the Seattle Seahawks in the first half after taking a huge hit over the middle of the field.
Cooper was trying to corral a low pass from Derek Carr when Seattle Seahawks safety Bradley McDougald threw a ferocious hit on him. There was contact to the head and neck area, but surprisingly no flag was thrown.

The team announced that Cooper was being evaluated for a concussion:

That should have been a penalty, and hopefully the injury to Cooper is not serious.
