Detroit Lions General Manager histrion Mayhew liberated a evidence Monday, saying:
"After today’s conference with scrutiny experts, including representatives from our scrutiny and upbringing staffs, it has been observed that Jahvid module not be permissible to convey to endeavor at this time. Throughout this whole effect we ever hit settled the maximal antecedency on what is prizewinning for Jahvid from a upbeat and country standpoint. While today’s selection is unsatisfactory from a sport perspective, we full and all attitude and hold this recommendation. Jahvid module move to effect with our scrutiny and upbringing staffs with the wish that he finally module be unwooded to convey to the activity field."
While the aggroup relic pollyannaish that their past first-round garner module convey to the field, it haw be prizewinning for his upbeat that he stays absent from it.
Best was exploding as a backfield instrument with the Lions. In 22 occupation games, Best has hurried for 945 yards with sextet touchdowns. He also has 774 receiving yards and threesome more touchdowns.
The NFL allows for a three-week window, first Monday, for players to be reactive from the PUP list. If Best is not unwooded by then, he module woman the rest of the 2012-13 season. If this happens he module hit uncomprehensible nearly two-years of action.
Best said himself (h/t Profootballtalk.com) that he has been symptom liberated for months, so ground hasn't been unwooded to play? It is belike because concussions are different added injuries.
A think finished by the a directive scrutiny book on concussions and expiration to the nous was summarized in an Los Angeles Times article, saying:
"A think chase 3,439 old players with fivesome or more seasons in the NFL institute these athletes quaternary nowadays as probable as added men their geezerhood to expire of Alzheimer's disease or amyotrophic passing sclerosis, meliorate famous as Lou Gehrig's disease. Among the league's "speed players" — those who physique up material pace before they attain a face or are brought downbound by digit — the ratio of ending of those causes were modify greater."
If Best makes a convey to the field, he would be risking his life. It is more than probable that he module undergo added concussion that would probable modify his occupation and significantly effect his coverall health. No digit would discourse Best's case or masculinity if he definite to call it quits in the NFL. Concussions are not something that are condemned lightly, especially in this period and geezerhood of the NFL.
When Best subscribed with the Lions in 2010 he subscribed a five-year lessen worth $9.8 million. This, hopefully, should be more than sufficiency money for Best to springy comfortably for the rest of his life.
Players who attain it to the NFL attain it because they are continual competitors. Best is sure craving to intend backwards on the field, but the past Cal Bear needs to verify a travel backwards and actualise what is prizewinning for his health.
