Chicago Bears wide receiver Luther Burden suffered a concussion in Sunday night’s win over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, head coach Ben Johnson said, according to NBC Sports.

Burden injured after fourth-quarter catch

Burden took a hit from Buccaneers rookie linebacker Rueben Bain following a catch in the fourth quarter. He fumbled on the play and was helped off the field for a medical evaluation. Tampa Bay tied the game a couple of plays later.

Before leaving, Burden caught seven passes for 97 yards. His performance included a touchdown reception on Caleb Williams’ second scoring pass of the first quarter.

Bears’ Week 10 bye provides time before next game

Burden must go through concussion protocol and receive clearance before returning. Chicago has a Week 10 bye, giving him two weeks to recover before he would be at risk of missing game action.
