He has a concussion and will be out for the rest of the game. The hit occurred on a third-down play with 6:32 left in the third quarter. Dalton scrambled up the middle on 3rd-and-10 and as he slid to the ground, Bostic lowered his helmet and hit Dalton’s helmet squarely.  Dalton appeared to be knocked unconscious momentarily. Bostic was assessed with a personal foul and ejected from the game. Credit: AP Dallas Cowboys quarterback
