The Calgary Stampeder halfback left the game in the second quarter and did not return in an 18-13 loss to the Winnipeg Blue Bombers. On a nine-yard run, Cornish was upended by Blue Bomber defensive back Bruce Johnson. Cornishs right shoulder hit the turf first and his head snapped down on the ground. The CFLs Most Outstanding Player in 2013 needed assistance getting off the field. Cornish walked to the team clubhouse unaided, but flanked by medical staff. The 30-year-old from New Westminster, B.C., missed six games in July and August with concussion symptoms. Cornish was knocked unconscious by Montreals Kyries Hebert in the season-opener. Cornish told reporters in the Stampeder dressing room following Saturdays game he didnt think his second major knock to his head this season was as serious as the first on June 28. I knew I was concussed after that, Cornish said. I was not at the same level Im at now. I guess I got upended, another guy going for my knees as always and my head contacted the ground on the right side, he continued. When you hit it on the side, thats when you get the balance issue, so when I was getting up, I didnt have much balance so then immediately everybody freaks out. Go in, get checked out, no real issues, but as a precautionary measure, they took me out. Like I learned before with concussions, you cant say anything until youve got a few days without symptoms. Calgary (14-3) closes out the regular season Friday in Vancouver against the B.C. Lions. Whether Cornish will play in the finale is a question mark. The Stampeders seecured first in the West Division with a win in Winnipeg on Oct.dddddddddddd 18, and thus knew over a month out from the division final theyd be playing in it Nov. 23 at McMahon. Cornish posted a single-game career-high 208 yards in Winnipeg and was working another big-yardage game Saturday before he was hurt. He rushed for 105 yards to surpass 1,000 for a third straight season before leaving the game. He was appearing in just his ninth game after sitting out two other games this season with injuries. Cornish still leads the CFL in rushing with 1,082 yards after winning the leagues rushing title the past two seasons. Stampeder head coach and general manager John Hufnagel was optimistic Cornish will bounce back. I dont believe its very serious, Hufnagel said. Hes on the sideline 10 minutes after he went in (to the clubhouse). Hell go through concussion protocol, but I dont think it will take very long. New turf was installed at McMahon Stadium prior to this season, to the relief of the Stampeders who said the previous playing surface felt like concrete in recent years. But Stampeder slotback Nik Lewis said the new turf lost cushioning in September, when snow removal after a freak summer snowstorm also removed the small black pellets embedded in it. Weve got to figure out a way to replenish the little black pebbles or youre just going to play on concrete and everybody is susceptible to injuries no matter who you are, the veteran receiver said. The pebbles are what makes it soft. Its like concrete if you dont have the pebbles. Im just saying its scary to see Jon go down with that head injury and everybody is susceptible to that because its just a normal routine play. He hit his head on the ground and you see how hard the ground is. ' ' '
