Colt McCoy Does Not Blame Browns For Concussion Issues

Colt McCoy does not blame the Browns trainers for how they handled his concussion that has kept him out of Cleveland’s lineup since he suffered the blow three weeks ago, according to the Associated Press.

Browns president Mike Holmgren told reporters several weeks ago that despite reports from the team that they maintained proper protocol following the vicious hit from Steelers linebacker James Harrison, the team trainers did not check McCoy for concussion symptoms because they did not see the play. According to the AP, the trainers were tending to other players at the time of the collision.

Since the incident, the NFL Players Association has launched an investigation in order to gather information about what measures were taken by Cleveland’s training staff. The 25-year-old McCoy was allowed by the Browns to play the remainder of the fourth quarter following the hit.
