GREEN BAY, Wis. - Green Bay Packers coach Mike McCarthy thought the hits that concussed two of his players and sent one of them - rookie receiver Malachi Dupre - to the hospital were illegal and has asked the NFL to review them.

Both Dupre and cornerback Damarious Randall remained in the concussion protocol on Friday, the Packers coach said. Dupre spent Thursday night in the hospital after he was taken off the field on a gurney following a hard hit by Philadelphia Eagles safety Tre Sullivan at the end of a 3-yard catch in the fourth quarter of the preseason opener at Lambeau Field.
