Travis Kelce suffers injury after helmet-to-helmet hit (Video)
Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce suffered a scary injury after taking a helmet-to-helmet hit late in the second half of the AFC wild card game.
Kelce had caught a pass and turned upfield before taking a big hit from Tennessee Titans safety Johnathan Cyprien.
The hit on #Chiefs Travis Kelce that probably left him concussed. Getting checked out. pic.twitter.com/IqqPH2yscQ

Alarmingly, Kelce was very wobbly when being helped up, and went straight to the locker room.
No reason for Kelce to get back on the field any time soon. pic.twitter.com/w2XYgVVtiS

Kelce almost certainly went straight into concussion protocol. It wasn’t quite as scary as some other head injuries we saw this season, but at least Kelce didn’t go right back into the game afterward.
