Broncos head coach Nathaniel Hackett said he’s in wait-and-see mode as it pertains to quarterback Russell Wilson’s status moving forward after Wilson sustained a concussion in the fourth quarter Sunday against Kansas City.
Hackett would not rule Wilson out for Sunday’s home game against Arizona, but also wouldn’t commit to putting the veteran quarterback back on the field this season even if he clears concussion protocol.
Wilson was knocked out of the game early in the fourth quarter — Hackett said Monday he believes Wilson was briefly unconscious near the Chiefs’ goal line — and must pass through the NFL’s standardized concussion protocol before he’s allowed to play in a game again.
