More injuries happen on kickoffs and punts then any other facet of the game. Why risk him when his impact would be minimal. That said he will probably need surgery in the off-season. Very rarely do shoulder injuries heal on there on. The recovery period on shoulder injuries that require surgery is around 6 months.
This is the most important game of the season, as long as he cannot damage the shoulder any worse, which is unlikely, it is about pain tolerance. Play him, old school toughness.
He doesn't normally play special teams. He was in for Markus Bailey who was hurt earlier in the game. He fell badly on the shoulder. He wasn't hit crazily hard or anything. He just landed wrong. It could have happened playing his normal position. It was just one of those things
Fueled by the pursuit of greatness.
