Not surprising.

Wow 5 weeks, is that the expected wait time if he has another concussion?
Time heals all wounds. The longer the better. Good for the team to not rush it, especially now that it’s the off-season.
Some take 3-6 months. Depends on severity.
Not saying that’s the case for Tua, but who knows. Says there’s no setback sounds like they’re just doing due diligence.

It’s the Pro Bowl who cares? Rest up and be 100% for the 23 season
At this point there’s literally no reason to rush him through protocol. In fact, it makes sense to deliberately slow down the process so that next year no one can accuse us of not taking it seriously.
Put him in a sensory deprivation chamber until August.

I agree with you. My worry is that maybe it is not the team moving slowly. Maybe that’s how damaged Tua was and how long it is taking to be cleared.
It is a shame that by not playing in the Pro Bowl games he doesn't get the title of being a Pro Bowl QB this season. Even though he isn't participating, the league should still consider him a Pro Bowler, he deserves it.
Hopefully they are just taking things really slow. I guess we get concerned if he is still in the protocol come Summer mini camps, but he has to clear way before then, right?

I really think a deliberate progression of protocol is exactly what’s needed and I’m glad they’re taking that approach.
I’d rather him rest up and get healthy for next season for games that matter instead of playing some BS flag football game that doesn’t count for anything.

This was probably decided long ago, job 1 is to see him on the field in September
