II would be thrilled but not holding out any hope, between this and his proness to concussions.
A great player may have aa career that never gets off the ground.
He's only prone to concussions because he's been tackling head first. Hopefully he won't do that anymore.

Once you have had a concussion, it increases your odds for another, and 2 increases your odds more, and then 3, 4....so how many concussions has Burfict had ?....anyway, doctors will tell you it increases the odds for more.........but I do agree, he is the last person that should be head butting people. He will suffer from it more than who he hits, plus he will get fined and suspended because he is on the NFL Dirty Player List and they cut him no slack. The coaches say he needs to stop it and tackle right. You are correct he needs to tackle right and stop using his head. Plus, I don't miss those 15 yard penalties against our defense for illegal and unsportsman type hits.
