Nappyroots 32 Posted November 19, 2020 Share Posted November 19, 2020 Really! Concussion in PRACTICE! Only the lions could make it possible. Carolina bout to make AP look like Dalvin Cook this Sunday. Then this Thanksgiving will be spent taking bets on which RB gets more carries. Can't they just let Swift be great!

jwilsonxo 153 Posted November 19, 2020 Share Posted November 19, 2020 I don't even understand why teams wear pads on Thursdays. Ridiculous. Keeping some faith, though. Such a juicy match-up 😩😩😩😩 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Evincar 1,690 Posted November 19, 2020 Share Posted November 19, 2020 I doubt he plays, especially given that the Lions play on Thanksgiving next Thursday. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
PackerBacker555 943 Posted November 19, 2020 Share Posted November 19, 2020 Probably didn’t even happen in practice. Who knows, Patricia and him could have gone to the bar last night and Matt punched him so bad knocked him out. seriously though, I doubt this happened at practice. NO WAY by Sunday, someone will sell a video to TMZ and make bank so Lazor can talk about it on FOX 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Prezkot 496 Posted November 19, 2020 Share Posted November 19, 2020 Scene: Matt Patricia's office, Allen Park, Michigan. We pan over a disheveled room cluttered with Coney Island hot dog wrappers and empty Faygo bottles. Our hero sits in his extra-wide office chair, scratching flakes of Paczki out of his beard when Adrian Peterson enters. Adrian: Hey boss man, can I talk to you for a minute? Matt: (belches out the remaining Redpop Faygo he chugged moments earlier) Of course, Adrian. What's up? Matt opens up an extra large Detroit-style pepperoni pizza box and takes a slice. A: Hey man, I know we agreed to a plan at the beginning of the season, and I'm thankful for the opportunity, but I gotta get more carries. M: (chewing) Adrian, I brought you in because I care about your kids. You needed money and we needed a veteran to ease D'Andre in since he didn't get pre-season reps. We both knew by mid-season this was D'Andre's job. Don't you know how much $&!% I've gotten in the media this year giving you so many carries over D'Andre? A: I'm a first ballot Hall of Famer. My legacy deserves some respect. Matt grabs his second slice of pizza. M: (chewing) And I'm an intelligent individual that Bill Belichick thought highly of, but that doesn't matter in the court of public opinion. People online think I'm a fat turd. A: (nods head slowly) Yeah... but here's the thing. I've already burned through my contract advances paying child support. Y'all might be set for the next 2-3 years with D'Andre but there's still 27 other teams that I haven't played for yet and I need to play for next year's contract. I need more carries to showcase myself. Give me 2 more weeks. Let me run 20 carries on Thanksgiving and you won't hear from me again. Matt pours Vernors into his glass and chugs a Boston Cooler. M: (chugging) I feel for you AP, but we already made the switch to D'Andre. How am I supposed to make another switch? A: No worries Pat, I know all about making switches... Awkward, uncomfortable silence fills the sticky, sweaty, stale food tinged air. A: What I mean to say is, tell the media D'Andre has a concussion. Head injuries aren't real injuries so nobody will be able to cor... corbob... coagulate the injury. Matt strokes his beard in thought as additional flakes of Paczki fall out. A: Please, Patty. I need this. My kids need this. Won't you please think of the children? M: (shoving 3 slices of pizza in his mouth) Yo. Adrian. I got you. I'll tell D'Andre he's got a concussion. You get 2 more weeks. Happy Thanksgiving! 1 2 6 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I won't admit to knowing a whole lot, but from what I saw is he needs to be clear of symptoms to get approval from a neutral evaluator to return to action. He must then participate in a full day of practice before being allowed to play in a game. The part of needing the practice is where I am not sure if I understand correctly. It is also the part that would make it difficult for him to pass the protocol in time to play on Sunday since I don't think they practice on Saturday. I hope I am wrong. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
RyanksN 167 Posted November 20, 2020 Share Posted November 20, 2020 If it did happen during midweek practice, I would think it's highly unlikely he plays this week. He seems to be a key future piece to their organization and why would they jeopardize his long term health while sitting at 4-5 with only an outside chance of the playoffs.

owenmills 5,326 Posted November 20, 2020 Share Posted November 20, 2020 RB is such trash this season. The second we think we may have one he gets a mid-week concussion? 🥴 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

TTo34 2,950 Posted November 20, 2020 Share Posted November 20, 2020 Well if definitely sucks that he's not going to go this week. The silver lining is, hopefully this gives him a chance to get fresh legs and be 💯 for the Thursday Thanksgiving bowl. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

mike11 22 Posted November 21, 2020 Share Posted November 21, 2020 It’s pretty likely he’s back for Turkey day right? It stinks because he’s probably my favorite “my guy” to watch on Sunday for me this year, but hope he can run train next week. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
