Great read on an update for Keenan Ellis. That was a serious concussion--he doesn't even remember much past Chaz Ah You signaling in the coverage for the play.

Keenan Ellis, a promising junior defensive back at BYU, lay unresponsive at the 30-yard line after his head had collided with an opponent.
