delfamdelfam Posted October 17, 2011 Share Posted October 17, 2011 per rotoworld, Jahvid Best sustained a concussion in the 4th quarter. This seems to be happening pretty regularly, how long can he last? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MTSuper7 Posted October 17, 2011 Share Posted October 17, 2011 I'm confused how the Lions let Jahvid Best, with his history of concussions, back into the game at any point. It says to me that it must be a pretty mild concussion, no? Still, I can't imagine any concussion would be mild with his history. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RJV Posted October 17, 2011 Share Posted October 17, 2011 (edited) The sad thing is, all his talent will be for not if he keeps getting injured at the drop of a hat. He is so susceptible to injury, that I compare it to throwing a rock in a glass house. Edited October 17, 2011 by RJV Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tastes Like More Posted October 18, 2011 Share Posted October 18, 2011 Best wasn't supposed to be in for this many snaps from the get go. Once Leshoure went down, Linehan and Schwartz knew they were playing with fire having Best play as many snaps as he has. Hopefully, they get Sheffler back soon because their offense is far more efficient with a two TE set. Ronnie Brown is intriguing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

i_am_the_swammi Posted October 20, 2011 Share Posted October 20, 2011 Yeah, I'm not buying it. Too soon to say out for the year on a concussion. Â Well, CBS reporting that those "close" to Best are encouraging him to skip the rest of the year in an effort to save his career: Â Jahvid Best, RB DETÂ News: CBSSports.com NFL Insider Mike Freeman reported Thursday that Lions RB Jahvid Best has been advised by people close to him to "strongly consider sitting out the year" after suffering his second concussion of the season. As Freeman noted, Best was forced to miss the final four games of his college career due to concussion-like symptoms. Speculation is that further concussion issues could wreck his career. Best did not practice Wednesday and the Lions are mum on whether or not he'll suit up against the Falcons. The team had traded for Eagles RB Ronnie Brown on Tuesday but the deal fell through when Jerome Harrison failed a physical. Maurice Morris is expected to start for the Lions if Best can't make it this week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
detlef Posted October 25, 2011 Share Posted October 25, 2011 I've been combing the interwebs for updates on Best and not finding much. He was dropped in one of my leagues and I wouldn't mind stashing him on my roster for the end of the season if there's a good chance he comes back. Â Anyone got anything?

Sunday Couch Potatoe Posted October 25, 2011 Share Posted October 25, 2011 would/could Best be back this week against Den? Doubtful with them being on a bye the following week it gives him 2 extra weeks of rest without risk. Best(no pun intended) case scenario is week 10 IMO Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
