Ben self reported a concussion

I can't say he took himself out of the game. All I got from the statement was that he told someone on the sideline about symptoms he was having. After that, you have to undergo NFL concussion protocols.

I've had a few concussions in my life, one very severe one, and have been around others who have had them, and I can say that they're all different, and sometimes, you don't really have control of what you say or do (meaning you can't hide your symptoms).
