Panthers DE Brian Burns (concussion) is progressing through the protocol. He wore a green jersey and helmet on Thursday. He was in a red jersey on Wednesday and did not participate in practice. CB Eli Manning (hamstring) also is in a green jersey. No sign of DE Yetur Gross-Matos

Lol. Did he mean Ricky Manning instead of Eli Apple? I mean he’s been gone for 15 years and I cannot for the life of me get Eli Apple and Ricky Manning to be a slip up and Eli Apple really doesn’t remind me of Eli Manning.

Damn, that couldn’t have been butchered any worse and there’s no logical mistake. Gotta wonder what goes on on his brain. He’s so random you almost wonder.

I think it’s a reason to be optimistic. Based on the above, I’d say he’s likely at the step right before being cleared (position Specific training minus contact activities) given he’s out there with a helmet. There are quite a few steps before: stretching only, then medically supervised light aerobic, then cardio then strength training. Then they can do position specific minus contact.

The last step is the team clearing the player to return and the team’s neurotrauma expert concurring. Based on the speed of progression, seems possible they put him through the protocol out of an abundance of caution. I’d bet tomorrow we’ll have our answer.

    • Trade up for a project was dumb, he's gonna be 25 next month. By the time you're deciding on whether he's worth the 5th year option or a big contract you're already gonna be thinking about moving on soon either way.  
    • I mean this is legit AF statement....you don't spend that draft capital on a project just like you don't trade up for an injured RB either, which was done in the same draft.  That draft IMO was a necessary evil for DM to learn from his mistakes (I think he did but some may not). Also I have to mention I'm a big Coker fan and think getting him as an UDFA was obv a steal.  Coker is the better WR2 at this point as Legette and its not even debatable unfortunately.  Give him year 3 but don't expect much from him.  Continue in the offseason with adding as much talent and competition on the roster as possible including WR.  Or just trade his ass for peanuts and continue to build roster by any means.......  
    • Losing him was a huge loss. Look at how the Bears went from a 5 win team to now a 11 win team. The Lions offensive line is bad this year, secondary is bad and Campbell going for it on 4th down all the time has cost them games instead of taking the Field Goals. Goff is inconsistent as well.
