In October of 2015, Syracuse announced that it reviewed Long’s concussion history and ruled that he would not be able to play football any longer for the Orange, despite the fact that there was no public records of the quarterback sustaining a concussion at Syracuse. However, there was a report that stated Long suffered three concussions during his senior year at high school, according to a report by NBC Sports.
