Twitter: Austin out with concussion symptoms

[cowboyblue22]

What does "getting hit hard" have to do with concussions?

Last I checked usually contact is how you get one. Unless you’re Tavon apparently.

That guy was in on like three plays. He is the must fragile football player that have ever seen. SMDH!

Be glad we didn’t draft him top 10 in the 1st round

Austin played 25 snaps in the game.

Austin has missed 14% of possible regular season games in his career.

Dez missed over 12%.

Julio Jones about 13%.

I love Tavon Austin so I won't bag on him here but he said he must of gotten the concussion during blocking. I think I recall one run in which he ran to the right and blocked the guy on the end of the line. Must of been when it happened. If not then I don't know. Hope he gets right and back as I feel that Kellen knows how to use him properly. In the meantime next man up.....Wally Pipped perhaps...We have riches in talent this year and this train waits for noone.

You're right. They mentioned on the radio shows that it happened during a receiver crack-back block.

Cobb has some hurt ribs too.


I wonder if Pollard can return punts?

Concussions are no laughing matter. I had a few, spent the night in the hospital for one of them. Both of the whites in my eyes were blood red from the veins busting.

 

[Cowpolk]

He should be drug tested

 

[links18]

He cracked his head on a front side.

Contact yes, usually (but not always), but not "hard hits."

Would rather see Devin Smith anyway, keep him out until he's 300% healthy.

I had seizures for years after having multiple concussions in 7th and 8th grade playing SS. My dad swears that I got a standing ovation after hitting a WR so hard you could hear it in the stands. I remember knowing what play they were going to run because they used the same formation earlier and hitting him but everything after that is a blur.

Lack of useless jet sweeps causes concussion-like symptoms per WebMD

 

[Cowboysheelsreds053]

Wow! There is something always with this guy but at WVA never remember him getting hurt.

 

[Melonfeud]

Maybe, I caught Tavon's concussion. I changed it to Samuel L Jackson with help from Google.

"Mr Glass"

that's some quality backtracking right there, genuine quality,,, I'm taking notes,Bro!
Yer' good

 

[Melonfeud]

And Cobb has a "minor" rib issue, according to Garrett. This is why I'm excited to see what Devin Smith can bring to the table.

I'd be more excited in seeing the #20 on some punt return duty.

 

[fansince68]

Sean Lee is next.....

 

[Melonfeud]

Yep, talented but tiny. Remember, each subsequent concussion takes less impact than the one prior to it. Aikman has made that clear many times with his...I've heard Staubach say it before about his too.

Ya,and they seem to linger more&more intensely too,even from like a 70% reduced power impact from that which initiated the original concussion ( mostly if the"impact" strikes the same spot/side of the head,,,cuz' I know

here we go again with Austin. worthless roster spot taken from a young player.

He could actually be a pretty nice weapon in this offense.

I like our top 3, though.

He's streaky. Kind of a gadget player.

But I think he fits in here.
