Brandon LaFell, a wide receiver for the Panthers, took a shot to the head from Bears safety Chris Conte. Conte was promptly flagged for hitting a defenseless receiver. The hit looked like a combination of shoulder and helmet, which will of course sending everyone into yet another heated helmet-to-helmet debate. LaFell was able to walk off the field under his own power, and has been taken to the locker room for further evaluation.

Here are two GIFs of the hit for good measure:
