Tennessee Titans wide receiver Treylon Burks was just stretchered off following a frightening fourth down play.
On 4th-and-4 from the Pittsburgh Steelers’ 46-yard line and a little over two minutes remaining in regulation, Titans rookie quarterback Will Levis threw deep down the left sideline to Burks, who was guarded by Levi Wallace.
The second-year wideout nearly pulled the ball in, but couldn’t hang onto the pass and then slammed his head on the ground as he landed.
Burks was immediately tended to by trainers and medical personnel and was eventually taken off the field on a cart, immobilized and strapped to a backboard.

The good news is that Burks gave a thumbs up as he was wheeled off the field.
Amazon Prime sideline reporter Kaylee Hartung also reported that Burks had full movement and feeling in all of his extremities as he was taken to the hospital.
