Oakland Raiders wide receiver Darrius Heyward-Bey has been diagnosed with a strained neck, as well as a concussion, according to the team’s official Twitter account.
Heyward-Bey was injured in the Raiders’ victory over the Pittsburgh Steelers on Sunday night, but has been released from hospital and “is expected to make a full recovery”.
The hit was tough to watch, as you could see that he lost consciousness while falling to the turf. Oakland passing attack was still able to move the ball even without Heyward-Bey on the field, but he is clearly one of their best weapons. Hopefully, he will be back in the coming weeks.
