Gardner (head) has returned to Sunday's game against the Vikings, Andy Vasquez of The Bergen Record reports. Gardner headed to the blue medical tent to be evaluated for a concussion following a collision with teammate Quincy Williams. His return to the field would suggest he's avoided any kind of injury, which is great news for the Jets secondary.
Gardner exited in the second half of Sunday's game against the Vikings to be evaluated for a head injury. Gardner headed to the blue medical tent on the Jets' sideline after he collided with teammate Quincy Williams, according to Al Iannazzone of Newsday. If Gardner is determined to have suffered a concussion, he'll be ruled out for the remainder of the game and enter the league's five-step protocol.
In spite of the benefit of a Week 7 bye, Gardner apparently still has work to do before he can return from his concussion. The Jets' injury reports over the week will provide more insight regarding his potential availability for Week 8.
