The second-year wide receiver was unable to make the catch, but appeared to suffer the injury with minimal contact from San Diego Chargers defenders. Instead, the biggest contact for Hurns' head came when it hit the turf. He was immediately ruled out by the team with a concussion and taken to the hospital.
Hurns, 24, was immobilized and put on a stretcher, but did have movement in his arms to give the crowd at EverBank Field a thumbs up as he was taken off.
Prior to the injury, Hurns had four receptions for 42 yards, extending his streak of games with a reception to 27, every game of his career. He is one half of the duo of second-year receivers with Allen Robinson, who have led the resurgent Jaguars to one of the most explosive young passing offenses.
