ludawg23 1,982 Posted December 3, 2020 Share Posted December 3, 2020 Unless you have a history of concussions, I think you should be fine as long as you pass protocol. Concussions are pretty straight forward in the sense that if you pass protocol and you are ready to play, I don't think you should worry about "lingering" effects as they wouldn't have passed you if you still has post-concussion symptons. If he is ready to play, he should be good to go. Link to post Share on other sites
MingusDew 407 Posted December 3, 2020 Share Posted December 3, 2020 Bevell saying Swift is "still working through the concussion protocol". I mean, no ****? Not quite as rosy as yesterday's "optimism". Link to post Share on other sites
owenmills 5,327 Posted December 3, 2020 Share Posted December 3, 2020 Super disappointing because I was counting on him as a key piece of a playoff run. If he doesn't make it back this week then what? I don't know how I'd feel about using him week 14 if he's active then, with the concern the team eases him back in. I know concussions aren't like other types of injuries that can necessarily be 'aggravated' but I could still see the team being careful Link to post Share on other sites

I know concussions aren't like other types of injuries that can necessarily be 'aggravated' but I could still see the team being careful I'm less concerned about him playing this week because it's the Bears. Definitely sucks if you're fighting for the playoffs. But his Week 14 and Week 15 are insanely good matchups and I will roll him out confidently if he's active. My worry is that if he's still not through protocol this week we may be looking at a season-ending injury, especially given that the Lions are trash.

mike11 26 Posted December 3, 2020 Share Posted December 3, 2020 (edited) This is starting to strike me as bizarre... I'm glad he's taking the time to get right, but a 3 week concussion that occurred mysteriously. I don't know, but this sounds somewhat severe.

owenmills 5,327 Posted December 3, 2020 Share Posted December 3, 2020 That's a boy AP. He sees Frank Gore has seized a workhorse role and is putting distance between him on the all-time rushing list. You take your time coming back D'Andre Link to post Share on other sites

Agree, if this happened during practice how awful to have something this severe happen. I guess he needs to take it day by day but it's just a time based recovery like anything else. 3+ weeks of symptoms... wow. Link to post Share on other sites
King Gonzo 147 Posted December 3, 2020 Share Posted December 3, 2020 Odd they were optimistic of him returning this week if he hasnt looked the same since getting hurt. I guess we will see what he does tomorrow. Link to post Share on other sites

I guess we will see what he does tomorrow. The pessimist in me thinks he was feeling a bit better, practiced in a limited fashion yesterday and then his symptoms reemerged today. Basically what happened last week. Seems like a chronic issue right now. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

On an unrelated note, after practicing fine yesterday, D’Andre woke up on the floor this morning and couldn’t remember the previous evening and also noted his concussion symptoms were back.
