Via Nicki Jhabvala of the Washington Post, J.D. McKissic’s neck was the issue from the collision with Diggs. Despite the cart ride, McKissic was in the locker room post-game walking around, tight end Logan Thomas said.
While head coach Ron Rivera didn’t have an update on McKissic after the game, his agent, Doug Hendrickson, did provide an update through his Twitter account.
“Great game @JdMckissic for @WashingtonNFL. He is all good!” Hendrickson wrote.
McKissic left the field on a cart in the closing minutes after a collision with safety Quandre Diggs. With 3:33 left to play, McKissic caught a pass from Taylor Heinicke and dove to try and pick up a first down. McKissic’s helmet drove straight into the left thigh of Diggs as he was getting to McKissic.
