Was it an eye poke or a concussion?

There is no way that was a poke. It was a concussion and just goes to show you why they hide the examination now and what the NFL is willing to do for advertising dollars. The players allow it so they need to shut up about the concussion thing when they know it's happening and winning is more important then having a brain or do they have a brain in the first place?

That’s his look when he’s conscious.

Just good that is was a clean hit, a penalty there could have
been a huge problem.

I like that he was already down, but decided to try and run again, only to get decked.

I didn't think he was concussed. I really felt like it was his eye, it looked like his helmet shifted as he rolled over. Granted it was a huge hit but that's just the way I saw it.

Go to YouTube.
Watch the hit in real time.
He got nailed head-on in the head by a full speed 300lb lineman. I'm sure his eyeball was affected when it hit the backside of his skull.

I watched it a few times, I'm probably wrong that was just my take.
