Denver Broncos quarterback Teddy Bridgewater was taken to a hospital for a head injury after he was carted off the field in the third quarter of Denver’s 15-10 loss to the Cincinnati Bengals on Sunday. Bridgewater was hurt in a collision that also sent Bengals linebacker Joe Bachie out of the game with a leg injury. Broncos coach Vic Fangio said that Bridgewater had movement in his extremities, and he’d be held overnight for observation, but was expected to be OK.

Denver trailed 9-3 with 5:34 left in the third quarter when Bridgewater scrambled to his right on second-and-5 from his 30-yard line. Bachie came up and squatted as he was about to make contact, and the two collided, with Bridgewater going airborne, landing a yard past the first-down marker, but falling on his face just as he was hit again by defensive tackle B.J. Hill. Bridgewater lay motionless as Bachie rolled onto his back on his own several yards away. Concerned players from both teams gathered on the field. Bachie was helped off with a leg injury and ruled out, and the cart came out to take Bridgewater off the field.
