personal reasons means non injury related I would thinkthink it could have anything to do with the concussions?
we could tell you but it's personalthink it could have anything to do with the concussions?
Is this a trick question?Have you ever missed two days of work and not been injured?
I have, but my career wasn't in jeopardy if a butterfly broadsided my head.Have you ever missed two days of work and not been injured?
Adrian Peterson just did.FUBAR said:Have you ever missed two days of work and not been injured?
Might have been. Took a headshot and left the game. He wasn't KO'd or anything, but it definitely rang his bell.@RapSheet: #Texans S DJ Swearinger's hit to the head of #Broncos WR Wes Welker. Led with his shoulder, but hit the head http://t.co/KPUoRFb71X
@ChrisHansenNFL: Welker has to seriously consider retiring if he has another concussion.
Welker concussed?
Not good. Sanders has to get a huge bump. Cody Lattimer also needs a bump.@MikeKlis: Wes Welker did suffer concussion said coach John Fox
Can't cover anyone - ☑Texans S DJ Swearinger's hit to the head of Broncos WR Wes Welker.
Give the man credit. He knows his strengths.@DeepSlant
Swearinger says he's been talking noise since he was 5. Says being vocal & getting in players' heads is an integral part of his game.
He can't go on the PUP. Only players on the preseason PUP can be put on the in season PUP. Once a player comes off the pre season PUP they cannot be placed on the in season PUP. IR designated to return list requires the player to miss 8 games before they can return.FBG's already speculating the PUP list for Welker if Denver wants to save a roster space for Prater's 4 game suspension. Getting concussed three times inside the space of a year can't be good.

Shouldn't the actual footballguy be the one firing off these e-mails?
I thought bryant was just a kind of silent partner.

Spot on.I'm not saying Swearinger isn't an #######, because he is, but that specific hit didn't look awfully dirty to me. He didn't lead with his helmet or launch his feet and Welker wasn't defenseless. It also looks like he likely got the concussion from his head hitting the ground.
Just saw the replay. I agree. I'm not sure what the defender is supposed to do there. He flung his shoulder at Welker's midsection and Welker ducked his head into it. I think it's time the offensive guys start taking some of the blame on themselves for throwing their heads into the fire in order to avoid a big hit to the midsection. Half the time they get hit in the head it's their own fault, and every time we see a good tackle to the midsection that we applaud for being a nice clean hit it was really just a WR turtle/duck away from being a blow to the head.that dude may be a piece of crap, but IMO the penalty on that hit was bs....he leads with his shoulder and is actually attempting to go low on welker but welker turtles up and lowers his head causing the contact to the head.....
There was a Welker specific email and the normal daily email which I checked. Plus an email specifically on Prater which I didn't check for news on Welker. Make sense?Ah, thanks, didn't check in there.The Matt Prater suspension email that went out this morning.Which email and what did it say exactly?

Nope, he cannot. he has practiced and played. Short IR is a possibility thoughI'm not sure Welker is PUP eligible.
