Footballguys on Ja'Marr Chase

Ja'Marr Chase likely out Week 5 with concussion; projected Week 7 return.

Ja'Marr Chase was the victim of a brutal facemask penalty before taking a hard follow-up hit that drove his head into the turf, resulting in a concussion evaluation and being ruled out for the remainder of the game. Concussions are highly variable and recovery is based on symptoms and progression through the NFL's concussion protocol rather than a set timeline. The overwhelming majority of wide receivers miss at least one game following a concussion (specifically 82% since 2017). The source considers Chase more likely than not to miss Week 5, with his current projected return of Week 7 due to the Bengals Week 6 bye.
