This Dolphins Quarterback Pat White Update.
Dolphins Quarterback Pat White suffered a concussion after being hit helmet-to-helmet by the Pittsburgh Steelers Ike Taylor. On a 3rd down and 9 play with 2:05 left in the 3rd Quarter, Pat White ducked down with the ball and ran left to the sideline to try and make a 1st down. He just missed as he was blasted by Taylor just as White headed for the sidelines.
White was immediately immobile after the hit, with Steelers and Dolphins players waving over doctors and trainers to help him.
The hit that Taylor made was within bounds; no penalty was called.
Profootballtalk.com reports that a "league source" said that Pat White had suffered a concussion, but had recovered from it.
Pat White was the second of two Dolphins quaterbacks removed from the same game due to injury. Earlier, Chad Henne was taken out after fighting blurred vision from a hit by Steeler's Linebacker Lamar Woodley. The problem wasn't immediate; it got worse during halftime of the game, so Henne was deactivated from play.
The Dolphins missed the playoffs as a result of the loss, 30 to 24.
