WildTurkey Posted November 19, 2015 Share Posted November 19, 2015 You guys holding onto Luck or dropping him? 2-6 weeks is a big window....how long do kidney lacerations (yeouch!) normally take to heal? If Keenan Allen was placed on IR, how is Luck expected to recover in possibly 2 weeks? Is this just "gamesmanship" going on with Luck's kidney? Couldn't he just have it removed or something since you only need one, right? Also how does a kidney get lacerated without a sharp object coming into play? Did he get shanked during one of those pile ups? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same prinipals of a concussion and your brain bouncing off your skull. Edited November 19, 2015 by 'canes2004 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plus I personally wouldn't have my kidney removed so I don't miss football games Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dolphin_Akie Posted November 19, 2015 Share Posted November 19, 2015 Im giving up on him for this fantasy season. Even if he comes back for the playoffs I wouldnt have confidence in starting him considering he'll be rushed back from an injury and hasnt exactly been stellar anyways.

Montana is da Man Posted November 19, 2015 Share Posted November 19, 2015 I'm holding onto him, but the leagues I own him in are big leagues and those I've picked up in his place don't have his skill. He needs to utilize his lucky beard and come back sooner. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AX2RUN Posted November 19, 2015 Share Posted November 19, 2015 Holding him only because I'm in the playoffs and he should be back by then. Using Bortles until he comes back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevegrab Posted November 19, 2015 Share Posted November 19, 2015 As usual a lot depends on your league, keeper/dynasty you probably hold him. Redraft it matters who else is available, and can he be a better option than your QB2/3 when he returns. I agree with the poster who said they're not removing a kidney just so they can be healthy and play football. They don't grow on trees and you may need that other one some day.
