Worthy out of concussion protocol
It took him almost a month, but DT Jerel Worthy is finally out of the concussion protocol. Head coach Sean McDermott confirmed that news on Wednesday as the defensive tackle was cleared for practice.
Worthy suffered a concussion in the team’s final preseason game. He was hustling to pursue a ball carrier downfield and a teammate collided with him helmet to helmet as he too tried to make the tackle.
The four-year veteran is expected to play a key role in Buffalo’s defensive tackle rotation after putting together a strong preseason.
