NFLPA Exec Slams NFL for Broken Cart After Mason Rudolph Injury
The NFL Players Association won't be happy with what Mason Rudolph had to go through after suffering a head injury in Sunday's game against the Baltimore Ravens.
The Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback was carried off the field after the medical cart broke, per Shalise Manza Young of Yahoo Sports. Rudolph was later ruled out for the rest of the game with a concussion.

The NFL released a statement regarding the matter, via Ian Rapoport of the NFL Network:
"A cart was brought on the field in the event it was needed. After evaluating the player, medical staff determined a cart was not necessary in this instance. Had one been needed, there was a backup cart on the other sideline which was immediately available. He received appropriate medical care per gameday protocols and is now in the concussion protocol."
Rudolph was taken to a hospital for further evaluation, according to ESPN's Brooke Pryor.
The initial injury was a scary moment at Heinz Field after Ravens safety Earl Thomas hit the quarterback. Rudolph sat motionless on the ground before eventually standing up and walking off the field.
Still, the severity of the injury meant he likely needed a stretcher.
The Steelers weren't able to provide that.
