Suppose it is possible. It's also possible that the team thought he was fine because they had no medical tests done at that point, and as we've seen many times, some people have a concussion only have symptoms obvious to those who do the protocol. Find it a bit more likely that he was responding to baseline questions to teammates (much like some players try to tell the coach they're fine to go in, and yes, they still know their name and where they are), and then later in the week get a "no" from protocol testers. People act like that's rare, but in reality it happens a lot with concussions.
