New York Jets cornerback Darrelle Revis sustained a concussion in Sunday’s 24–17 loss against the Houston Texans, head coach Todd Bowels confirmed after the game.

In the third quarter, Revis left the game after tackling Houston’s running back Akeem Hunt. Revis laid on the field for a short time, while trainers attended to him. The cornerback was able to get up and walk on his own to the sidelines.

The team initially said he was questionable to return with a head injury. He was replaced by second-year player Marcus Williams.

Revis, 30, has 27 tackles, along with three forced fumbles and interceptions on the season. He signed a five-year, $70 million contract with the Jets in March.
