You couldn’t have scripted a better start for the Green Bay Packers today, and it now appears they may have lost one of their top offensive weapons.

On the Packers’ first offensive possession, tight end Jermichael Finley was injured after taking a big hit on his neck, and looks like he may have suffered a concussion.

Finley has 11 catches for 121 yards and two touchdowns already this season. He had six receptions for 65 yards in a Week 2 win over the Washington Redskins, including a 27-yard touchdown reception.

You can see that he’s clearly displaying concussion-like symptoms, and his return looks to be very much in doubt:
