Winnipeg Jets defenseman Jacob Trouba has been diagnosed with a concussion, head coach Paul Maurice told reporters Tuesday.

Trouba was forced from Sunday's contest after a hard collision with Dallas Stars' captain Jamie Benn in just his second appearance since returning from a lower-body injury that kept him out 20 games. There is no timeline for a recovery at this point.

When available this season, Trouba has logged nearly 22 minutes per contest, contributing three goals and 19 assists in 52 games.
