if he didn’t just transfer im assuming he received lots of opinions from other teams who didn’t want him to die on their watch1to392831weretaken said:Joyner was an excellent player. No way was he forced out to "make room." My guess is he was forced out because team doctors suggested it would be dangerous to continue. Looks like he's gotten a second opinion.

Disagree. It's not a quality of life argument. It's a "you could die on the field or murder your family in a fit of CTE rage if you keep playing" argument. I feel terrible for Austin that he had his dream snuffed out in an instant, but there's no getting around this one.RoadDawg55 said:Good for Joyner. If he wants to play he should. He knows the risks. There is the quality of life arguments, but making hundreds of thousands, of not millions is better to some than long term health. It’s hard to care about being 60-70, even for the normal person.

Yeah, on the surface it's like "if the kid wants to play, let him play"WilburHooksHands said:

Unfortunately, 15 years from now it could be "you're being sued for millions for letting him play" -

Lohlhea can't be over 6' -- Murao is 6-2

That’s pretty extreme but okay. If I had to guess, the guys that did that kind of stuff and had CTE weren’t they most docile and well adjusted people to begin with.GreenRiverGatorz said:

He was already a redshirt junior and had played four games before getting knocked out. Iffy that he would even be given a redshirt. His options would have been limited without the head injuries.WilburHooksHands said:

He probably was a fringe NFL guy to begin with. After being out so long, I doubt he gets a chance even if he gets cleared. -
Doesn't look anywhere close to the 290 that Ektard reported. Did he lose a relative recently?Baseman said:Lohlhea can't be over 6' -- Murao is 6-2

@sonics1993 reported that he came in at 260, only 15 pounds more than when he signed.insinceredawg said:

My reaction was the same. After further inspection I think his positioning and the camera are robbing him of some apparent size.insinceredawg said:

Exciting that Jimmy wants a mobile QB, and that the mobile QB has mutual interest. Would love to see that dimension added to the offense.GrundleStiltzkin said:Missed this earlier
