No medical professional can clear a player to return same day when they have been determined to have suffered a concussion.
Appropriate medical professionals can evaluate a player and determine no concussion was suffered and thus return them to play that day. This could be an Athletic Trainer or Neurologist or other professional as specified.
Note: Even if concussion was not suspected, symptoms remaining precludes athlete from returning anyway.
I'll say again, the rules/laws are written to ensure that athlete's are removed and properly evaluated. Sometimes that means there is no concussion.
