Somehow Kiko Alonso was not ejected for that hit and is still playing in the game. He is likely to get a fine for that one as it resulted in a penalty for unnecessary roughness and took the QB's helmet off.
According to Tracy Wolfson on the CBS telecast, Flacco has been ruled out for the game with a concussion.
