Week 3 vs Denver Injury Report

I agree but because of last season the optics are different, that's just the way it is

The hell with that. This isn’t a political campaign, we’re trying to win football games.

If he has concussion symptoms, sit. If he’s good to go and cleared, you go out there and play and don’t give a **** who says what.

Wasn't Tua actually diagnosed with a concussion while Waddle here is only in the protocols?

Could very well be, I don't think they actually said either way

No they seem to be different for Tua but not other players.

Exactly! That was my point all along!

 

[Joe Dolfan]

I'd say this is the most likely scenario. If Waddle plays and end up with another concussion McDaniel would never hear the end of it

I just think he will lean to side of caution considering Tua situation last year and all. If Waddle does clear though I am sure he is going to press McD hard to let him play.

Nah. If an independent doctor clears him, there's no reason to sit him, and not doing it because you're afraid of big brother is stupid.

We don't even know if he actually got diagnosed with a concussion. If he didn't, then he should play 100%.

Yes, and also my reply wasn’t directed at you, but rather the notion of having to walk on eggshells for PR purposes because of last year.

Coach today said they will wait till he clears protocol and then make a decision.

I can see him suiting up on Sunday, he's not going to want to miss the home opener

Not up to him.

Hope that you are correct but if he hasn't fully cleared the 5 step concussion protocol process, then he won't. Not wanting to miss a game doesn't enter into the equation, Jaelen doesn't have control.

 

[circumstances]

Jaelen doesn't have control.

Jaylen Waddle and Jaelan Phillips' love child?
