Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Cade Johnson has been released from the hospital after suffering a concussion in the team's preseason matchup against the Minnesota Vikings Thursday night, according to Josh Alper of Pro Football Talk.
Johnson was removed from the game on a stretcher after being tackled on a kickoff return in the second quarter. After the game, head coach Pete Carroll told reporters that he didn't suffer any additional injuries beyond the concussion.
Johnson has been placed in the concussion protocol, and he will need to progress through the protocol and be declared clear before he is eligible to suit up for the Seahawks again.
