Jeanna Kelley has been covering the Falcons for The Falcoholic since 2011 and the NFL for SB Nation since 2015.
Goff was injured after sustaining a hit from Seahawks cornerback Richard Sherman. Sherman led with the shoulder and was not flagged on the play.
Sherman said he was keeping Goff from scoring.
Sherman also said the Seahawks “don’t give free meals.”
After the game, interim Rams head coach John Fassel confirmed that Goff is in the concussion protocol.
It was a rough night for Goff. He has completed just 13 of 25 passes for 135 yards and no touchdowns. Goff has been sacked four times by the Seahawks.
Case Keenum entered the game in Goff’s place. Keenum was the starter for Los Angeles until Week 11, when former Rams coach Jeff Fisher finally made the decision to let the first overall pick start.
Keenum has thrown for 2,169 yards, nine touchdowns and 11 interceptions this season.
The Rams lost to the Seahawks 24-3.
