Dolphins QB Green has Grade 3 concussion

Football Betting Lines

10/08/2007 - Davie, FL (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Dolphins head coach Cam Cameron revealed Monday that quarterback Trent Green suffered a Grade 3 concussion during Sunday's game against the Houston Texans.

Green was carted off the field in the first quarter after suffering a concussion as a result of a blow to the head. On a reverse play, Green attempted a low block on Houston lineman Travis Johnson, but Johnson's right knee connected directly on Green's helmet. Green laid on the field motionless for several minutes before he was carted away.

He was taken to a local hospital and eventually returned to the team after the game.

"I want to thank everyone for their expression of concern over the last 24 hours, especially my teammates and coaches," Green said in a statement released Monday. "I also want to convey my appreciation to the Dolphins and Texans trainers and doctors, as well as the people at Methodist Hospital for treating me yesterday."

The Dolphins acquired Green from the Kansas City Chiefs this offseason in exchange for a draft pick based on the two-time Pro Bowl quarterback's playing time this season.

This marks the second serious head injury in as many seasons for Green, who suffered a severe concussion in the 2006 season opener, a hit that kept him on the sideline for half of the season.

Cleo Lemon took over for Green and completed 15-of-27 passes for 151 yards and an interception as the winless Dolphins (0-5) lost to Houston, 22-19.

Cameron said that Lemon will get the start for the Dolphins' contest at Cleveland on Sunday.
