What happened to Tyjae Spears? Live injury updates for NFL Week 17

What happened to Tyjae Spears? Live injury updates for NFL Week 17

Published:

By: Dan Johnson

In the waning moments of the third quarter in Week 17’s game between the Tennessee Titans and the Jacksonville Jaguars, Tyjae Spears headed to the blue medical tent. He’s being evaluated for a concussion, per beat reporters.

It appears this could be an official’s decision to evaluate Spears. After Spears exited the tent, the broadcast showed him headed to the Tennessee home locker room.

Prior to leaving the game, Spears had been filling in for the injured Tony Pollard (ankle) superbly; he has 95 yards on 23 carries so far. Though he has also lost a fumble in what’s been a close game, with the Jaguars currently leading 13-10 at home.

We’ll provide more updates on Spears’s status here as the Titans release them.
