Los Angeles Chargers star Derwin James was sent to the medical tent after taking a scary hit to the head during the first half of Monday Night Football’s game vs. the Philadelphia Eagles. James was able to walk off the field and into the tent by himself.

James appeared to collide with teammate and defensive tackle Justin Eboigbe while trying to shed a block from Eagles WR DeVonta Smith. The two Chargers defenders collided in the backfield as Saquon Barkley took a rush to the outside.

He would eventually return to the game before the end of the half after the athletic training staff on-hand evaluated him. The Chargers led the Eagles 10-6 at halftime.
