Of course he is. A serious brain injury would get anyone's attention. At this point, this is most likely a career-ending injury.
Some posters on the thread have marveled at the length of time Glenn has been unable to practice. I'll relate an anecdote. A friend of my son got a concussion playing Oline in 8th grade at their middle school. Obviously that is a fall sport. He was unable to play sports (of any kind) the rest of that year. His freshman year of high school he skipped fall sports, played rec league basketball in the winter, and went out for baseball. For baseball they gave all the kids some tests for concussions and found that he STILL had concussion symptoms and had to sit out freshman baseball. That was well over a year later! For some people, these can really linger and the best (only) solution is to give up any kind of contact sports. This kid was/is a very good student, so it was a no-brainer (no pun intended) to focus on school.
