    Ward with a concussion?

    Via Twitter

    "espnafc_north #Steelers coach Mike Tomlin confirmed in his press conference WR Hines Ward suffered a concussion. It was initially called a neck injury."

    Can anyone confirm this?

    I figured thats what happened, just wanted to be sure.

    I believe it because if you suffer a concussion you have to remain out for the rest of that game, but by the looks of it he will be ready for next week.

    I figured it was a concussion when I first saw it, I thought they called it a "neck injury" to get around the concussion rule.

    I just started this thread because this is the first official word I have heard saying it actually was a concussion.

    They will probably fine Harrison for it...

    Yep. A neck injury doesn't make you stumble off the field.

    But if they said neck he could have come back in.

    I'm still pissed that they didn't throw a flag on that play.

    But the NFL is concerned first and foremost about player safety!

    It's an automatic $50,000 and an extra draft pick for touching the brady.
