The New England Patriots trail the Jacksonville Jaguars 14-10 at halftime of the AFC Championship Game, and they may have to play the the second half with their most important receiver.

Patriots tight end Rob Gronkowski left the game late in the first half after taking a hit to the head from Jaguars safety Barry Church. Gronkowski was woozy as he got up from the play and went to the locker room with the help of the Patriots’ training staff.

Church was given a 15-yard unnecessary roughness penalty and the Patriots went on to score a touchdown on the drive, but it sure seems like Gronkowski suffered a concussion.


UPDATE: He’s officially out with a concussion.
