It's obvious when Burfict got the concussion last week so the question is, why did we bring him back out? Aren't there rules against putting players in danger liker that?
I guess the only reason we may not get in trouble is because it's Burfict and everyone wants to see him die anyways.
But, Isn't it a little alarming that Burfict went back on the field in the 2nd half when he was clearly concussed?
Burfict's return is alarming, if you believe the NFL owners actually give a shit about concussions. After all, the owners agreed to a $1 billion dollar out of court settlement related to concussions provided they didn't have to admit what they knew about concussions and when they knew it. The owner's concern ends with their financial liability.
