Concussion in Sports 1 PSA (:30)

[Coach] Timeout! Okay, guys, Summers really had his bell rung and could have a concussion. I'm pulling him out for the game. Rodriguez you're in for Summers.

[Summers] C'mon Coach, it's just a ding; I'll shake it off.

[Male Player] Yeah, he's tough; plus, we need to win this to make the playoffs.

[Coach] Listen, we're a team and we need to look out for each other. Concussions are serious. No game is more important than your health.

[Announcer] Take concussions out of play. If you're a coach, know the warning signs and never let athletes return to play before a health care professional says it's ok.
