Actually, it is a good sign. There is lots of excitement in the locker room. If they feel he can handle that, he must be progressing really well. Usually, the more they let you do, the better. The less they let you do, is bad.

 

With his concussion last year, he wasn't around for the first two weeks, IIRC. So he must be doing well. Or at least better than his last one.

McDonalds REALLY wants you to know the McRib is back. Flying over Panthers practice.

 

best news of the week

Is there serious talk about Oher having to retire?  I mean, missing 2 months with a concussion has to be truly awful and has to be symptomatic of something possibly life threatening.

Cool. Any idea if Oher has been around the locker room? I know he was on practice field just walking around a week or so ago but not sure if/when he was in the locker room. Really hope Luke and Kalil travel. Even if they're out this week that'd mean they have a solid chance of being back for Seattle.

Concussion Protocols are not allowed to travel. Also, teams don't usually take injured players either. (CJ paid his own way to, was it the Titans, last year.)

 

Not sure Kalil will go to Oakland, but if he can play next week, the team will get him to Seattle.

 

Not sure about Oher this year. He has been around the building, but I have not heard what extent he is interacting with anyone but the doctors. Usually, they don't like guys in the protocol doing much. Especially when they don't seem to be improving.

 

Traveling, light, driving, and even movement can all mess with a concussion. It is up to the doctors on what they are allowed to do. It is really concerning that Oher is taking so long to recuperate.

This is different since we're staying out there for both games. It was reported that any who don't initially travel will be out for the whole trip.

Now that is an interesting scenario. Because they will be there for two weeks, maybe they will do things differently. But usually, injured guys don't travel. So it will be interesting to know who travels, and who stays home.

 

If they feel a guy might play either this week, or next, maybe they will travel with the team. It could be that Oher, and Luke could be the only guys not travelling. Or they will just go to war with who they take. Making the decision on who travels a big one.

 

I mean, what if Addison can't go this week, but could be ready to go next week? Will they leave him home, so he could miss both games? Take him and hope he plays next week? Or leave him, and if he looks good, bring him out later?
