Panthers head coach Dave Canales gave an update on tight end Ja’Tavion Sanders’s condition after the end of Sunday’s 30-27 loss to the Chiefs.
Sanders had to leave the game after being flipped and landing on his head during the first half. Sanders was placed on a backboard and taken to a local hospital for further evaluation.
Canales said at halftime that Sanders has a concussion and has movement in all his extremities. He told reporters after the game that Sanders also has a neck injury and that the tight end has been released from the hospital.
Further updates will come during the week, but it’s a positive first update after a scary scene on Sunday.
