Los Angeles Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford was placed in the concussion protocol ahead of the team's upcoming game against the Kansas City Chiefs, per Mike Florio of Pro Football Talk.
Injuries have been a concern with Stafford this season, as he previously missed time with a concussion and was then evaluated for another one when he exited a Week 11 loss to the New Orleans Saints.
This year has been a far cry from the last one for both the quarterback and the Rams as a whole. Los Angeles is sitting in last place in the NFC West at 3-7 and looks nothing like the team that won the Super Bowl last season.
