LOS ANGELES -- Pittsburgh Steelers cornerback Darius Slay suffered a concussion against the Los Angeles Chargers in the second quarter and did not return.

It happened on a run play when Slay was slammed into by teammate Kyle Dugger. Dugger hit Slay right in the head on the backside of a tackle, and he stayed down.

After he walked off the field under his own power, Slay went into the blue medical tent and was immediately escorted to the locker room. He was initially ruled as questionable before being ruled out for the rest of the game with the injury. James Pierre came in and replaced him.

Slay has dealt with other injuries this year, including a dislocated finger, shoulder issue, and a self-described ‘tight calf’ at one point during the team’s game against the Green Bay Packers.
