Davante Adams clears concussion protocol and then scores first Jets touchdown

The Jets got a scare from one of their stars.But not only did they avoid the worst, they saw some signs of life to boot.Davante Adams was evaluated for a concussion after taking a hard hit early in the fourth quarter of the Jets’ “Thursday Night Football” game against the Texans at MetLife Stadium.But he returned with about four minutes left in the final quarter of regulation after clearing the concussion protocol and then scored his first touchdown in a jets uniform.With the Jets in a fourth-and-short situation near midfield, Aaron Rodgers connected with Adams on a 17-yard gain before the wideout took a hard hit on the sideline from Houston safety Eric Murray.

Adams stayed down on the ground for a few moments before getting up on the Jets’ sideline.He was then taken to the blue medical tent and then to the locker room, where he was being evaluated for a concussion.After time off the field, Adams returned to action with the Jets leading 14-10 after Garrett Wilson’s go-ahead touchdown.And with a little over three minutes left, Rodgers found a streaking Adams down the seam on the far side of the field, and the two connected for a 37-yard touchdown.

A crazy turn of events for the Jets....
