Davante Adams makes it through concussion protocol with a huge sigh of relief from the Jets

The Jets were spooked by one of their stars.

But not only were they able to prevent the worst, they also saw some signs of life.

Davante Adams was evaluated for a concussion after suffering a severe blow early in the fourth quarter of the Jets’ “Thursday Night Football” game against the Texans at MetLife Stadium.

But he returned with about four minutes left in the final quarter of regulation after clearing concussion protocol and then scored his first touchdown in a Jets uniform.

With the Jets in a fourth-and-short situation near midfield, Aaron Rodgers connected with Adams for a 17-yard gain before the wideout was hit hard on the sideline by Houston safety Eric Murray.

Adams remained on the ground for a few moments before getting up on the Jets sideline.

He was then taken to the blue medical tent and then to the locker room where he was checked for a concussion.

After a timeout from the field, Adams returned to action and the Jets led 14-10 after Garrett Wilson’s go-ahead touchdown.

And with just over three minutes left, Rodgers found a passing Adams on the other side of the field, and the two connected for a 37-yard touchdown.

A crazy turn of events for the Jets.
