Cardinals TE Trey McBride in concussion protocol after loss to Lions

McBride’s status was the only player Cardinals head coach Jonathan Gannon had information about on Monday.

Arizona Cardinals head coach Jonathan Gannon didn’t have much new information on Monday about the injuries a few players suffered in their Week 3 loss to the Detroit Lions on Sunday.

But he did have one update to share.

Tight end Trey McBride, who exited the game in the fourth quarterback after a brutal helmet-to-helmet collision with Lions safety Brian Branch, is in concussion protocol.

“We’ll see how he goes throughout the week,” he said.

The Cardinals won’t practice until Wednesday, so we will see how quickly he progresses.

As the protocol goes, he has to be symptom free for 24 hours, then will have a ramp up in activity to see if symptoms return. No symptoms after a full load of work clears players.

The Cardinals will host the Washington Commanders on Sunday. He will want to be out there.

The first injury report of the week will come out Wednesday afternoon.
