"&lt;p&gt;               &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;  &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt; LAWRENCE, Kan. (AP) -- Top playmaker Tony Pierson will miss the rest of the season for Kansas because of recurring symptoms from a concussion that he sustained against Texas Tech last month.    &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt; Jayhawks coach Charlie Weis said Tuesday that ''a healthy Tony is critical to the success of our program, but not at the risk of Tony.''    &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt; Pierson missed most of four games after he sustained a concussion while getting tackled Oct. 5. He returned Nov. 9 at Oklahoma State, but took another big hit in a win over West Virginia on Saturday that ended the Jayhawks' 27-game Big 12 losing streak.    &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt; Pierson is the Jayhawks' leading receiver with 24 catches for 333 yards and a touchdown. He's also run for 163 yards.    &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt; Kansas (3-7, 1-6 Big 12) visits Iowa State on Saturday before hosting Kansas State to finish the season.      &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Copyright 2014 Associated Press.
