In the second half, Will Compton went down with a knee injury and did not return. Compton was seen after the game in good spirits.
“I feel good,” Compton said. “I feel optimistic. They think maybe it’s a PCL. They feel like my major ligaments are pretty good, but you never know until the MRI. But, yeah, I feel optimistic.”
Additionally, running back and special teams specialist Mack Brown suffered a concussion. According to Gruden, Brown has entered the NFL’s concussion protocol.
