Dos Santos subbed out in the 29th minute of Saturday's 2-2 (5-4) penalty shootout loss versus Portland Timbers due to a head injury, according to manager Mikey Varas, per San Diego Futbol. "[The injury is] not good."

Dos Santos had his day cut short after a scary incident Saturday, with his head being kicked after an attempted strike of the ball by an opponent, leaving with a head injury and possible concussion. This is a brutal development for the club as they head into their third and series-deciding match against Portland. If it is a concussion, the goalie will enter protocol and not be available for that game, with Pablo Sisniega as a likely replacement after taking his spot Saturday.
