UPDATE: ESPN's Kris Rhim doesn't see McConkey on the sideline, so it looks like he might have gone back to the locker room.
"I don't see Ladd McConkey on the bench or sideline, appears he went into the locker room," Rhim wrote.
Still waiting for an official update from the team.

McConkey was able to walk off under his own power after getting hurt and now he's in the tent getting checked out.
