Bailey Wright update as Sunderland defender's Rotherham debut lasts less than a minute
On loan Sunderland defender Bailey Wright could miss Rotherham United’s game this weekend after suffering a concussion within the first minute of his debut.
Wright came off the bench for Rotherham around the 70-minute mark before challenging for a header 30 seconds later. The 30-year-old had to go off after a clash of heads on his Millers debut without touching the ball.
It was later confirmed Wright was concussed following the clash and that he will now go through a week of concussion protocols.
