Jason Witten was a full time starter his entire career at a high impact position (TE) and he only missed ONE games in 15 years.
While many football players claim that EVERY NFL player has had a concussion at some point in practice or a game John Lynch, who was one of the hardest hitting players I ever saw, claims he NEVER had a single concussion in college or 15 years in the NFL.
I'll take what Lynch says with a grain of salt. It's much more likely he just doesn't recognize or know the signs or symptoms of a concussion. Take yourself for example. You claimed you never had a concussion, but got knocked unconscious by a blow to the head with a shot put. Your unconsciousness was a sign of temporary brain dysfunction due to a TBI from the shot put hitting the back of your skull hard enough to cause your brain to rattle around inside your skull which is why you were unconscious.
