EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. (AP) — New York Jets quarterback Justin Fields left in the fourth quarter of the 30-10 loss to the Buffalo Bills with a concussion.
After being sacked by Joey Bosa, Fields was checked out in the injury tent on the Jets’ sideline and emerged several minutes later with a towel over his head. The quarterback then walked inside to the locker room for further evaluation.
Tyrod Taylor replaced Fields with 12:03 remaining in the game and the Jets losing 30-3.
Fields and the Jets’ offense struggled mightily against Buffalo. He was only 3 of 11 for 27 yards before leaving the game. Fields also ran for 49 yards on five carries.
Taylor went 7 of 11 for 56 yards and a touchdown to Jeremy Ruckert in place of Fields.
Fields will be evaluated during the week and it’s uncertain if he’ll be ready to play in the Jets’ next game at Tampa Bay next Sunday.
Jets edge rusher Jermaine Johnson (ankle), nickel cornerback Michael Carter II (shoulder) and safety Tony Adams (groin) also left the game with injuries.
