If the Trainer's concern was for something other than A7's concussion status (depending on circumstances) I would either have a brief discussion with the Trainer about NFHS 9-8-3, or if appropriate penalize him/her.

The question was if the player was required to sit out a play. And the answer is no. If you sit him down, in the situation of the original post, you do not have backing by rule. Though, you could say that you did have an official's time out for injury and then you can be covered, by rule.
