I have heard that this is something that doesn't just go away from people I know with it now. Heard some people still feel the effects years after the initial injury, and they aren't playing football either.
I guess he will just get a shot before every game and play through it. With the potential of causing further injury posting up against 300lb dudes...talk about a big question mark.
How do you guys feel about his ability to play all 16 games this season with this?
Some athletes can still function at a very high level with it. Joakim Noah of the CHicago Bulls has it, and he just completed one of his best seasons and was playing at a high level in the playoffs.
Our TE Miller has it, and he played through pain in the Atlanta game and had his best game as a Seahawk.
It's not a death sentence even though most guys who have it will have to deal with it forever.
