Luke Kuechly returns to Practice

I don't like. At all. There's nothing left to play for. The season is over. Why risk our best defensive player who's missed multiple games in both of the last two seasons due to concussions? Just let the guy fully recover.

Concussions are still largely a mystery. Current protocol in the NFL is that once the player performs to his baseline tests, he's good to go. But, are we sure about that? Not even a little bit. In combat sports, fighters who lose by knockout (either by ten count or technical) are automatically suspended for 30 days, three months if it is the second knockout within three months, or one year if it is the third knockout within one year.

to be selfish and play Devil's Advocate....

I've made the playoffs in an Individual Defensive Player (IDP) fantasy league and I REALLY need Luke to be back this week!

but yeah, for the franchise and for our star player's health, he might should sit out for the year (please don't sit out for the year!)

    • One thing about it, he's not thinking about retiring. I found it odd that some Huddlers were taking rumors and running with them, imagining a slow down and "up-playing" injuries. Moton feels great and is still in his prime according to him, and his game is still indicative of his thoughts.  Sure, it may ultimately come down to economics, but I am sure that everyone involved is motivated to keep him in Charlotte.
    • I think the knee stuff with Moton has been blown way out of proportion. The exact quote was “It’s chronic stuff. Most linemen deal with it. But it’s just figuring out what we can do to make sure it’s limited and I’m still able to explode off it, which right now I can and I feel like I can in the future,” After a while, you start learning more about it and what can we do to make sure it’s as little of an issue as possible. I feel like I’m moving like I was when I was younger.” I don't view that as a guy who's saying his knees are on their last leg I see that as a 10-year NFL olineman saying that obviously after 10 years of playing a really physical sport, he's never truly gonna be 100% healthy again and he's gonna need to spend more time with the training staff to ensure his body can continue to perform at a high level. I think Moton has another 3 to 5 years left if he wants to continue playing.   
    • So much crying. Tiresome. All of you should have had enough time to come to terms with the team picking up his 5th year...
