Bishop McGuinness linebacker Brandon Nguyen suffered a concussion during his team’s first scrimmage last Thursday against Lawton MacArthur and will sit out this week at least, he said Sunday.

Nguyen suffered the injury on a helmet-to-helmet collision with MacArthur running back Darius Graham near the goal line on the Irish’s first defensive series.

This Thursday, McGuinness will take part in the Pepsi Pigskin Preview at Mustang.

Nguyen, who made 117 tackles last season and is one of the Irish’s returning leaders on defense, said he hopes to be back and ready for McGuinness’ first game against Shawnee’s junior varsity squad on Thursday, Sept. 1.
