YoloinOhio Posted October 13, 2015 Share Posted October 13, 2015 Whaley said on WGR this morning that they don't know the results yet as he needs to take more tests this week to get cleared, but there weren't any "setbacks" that they were made aware of ...as in the doctors didn't contact them after the test he had yesterday with any bad news. He seemed cautiously optimistic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Canadian Bills Fan Posted October 13, 2015 Share Posted October 13, 2015 I hope he plays this Sunday. I mean missing 2 weeks for a concussion would be awful CBF Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YoloinOhio Posted October 13, 2015 Author Share Posted October 13, 2015 So, basically no update... i saw two posts from yesterday from people who heard he probably won't play (Howard Simon) or that the concussion was worse than they thought (Schefter)... So this is straight from Whaley Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YattaOkasan Posted October 13, 2015 Share Posted October 13, 2015 Really need a RB back. I assume McCoy is inactive till the after the bye so Special K will need to show up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Commish Posted October 13, 2015 Share Posted October 13, 2015 Remember, we want to know if Karlos and Sammy are playing, but it's totally in the Bills interest to keep that question unsettled as long as possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KDIGGZ Posted October 13, 2015 Share Posted October 13, 2015 we miss Fred. fingers crossed that Karlos can play but he's not a feature back. he's a change of pace guy. have i mentioned that i'm not a fan of our RB depth? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nihilarian Posted October 13, 2015 Share Posted October 13, 2015 Just read that the kid had concussion problems in college, and this recent concussion is more serious then they first thought. What happens is after suffering a concussion you become more susceptible to getting them, and the more you get the more chance of a long term problem. Lets hope for the best for Karlos going forward.

Lets hope for the best for Karlos going forward. i definitely think the more you have had the more susceptible you are to getting more. 1) some players are more susceptible just because of the way they play. if you are a big contact type guy then that's just how you have played your whole life so it's going to result in more big hits. 2) a concussion is basically your brain bouncing around in your head. i have to think that the more you have jarred that thing loose the more susceptible it is to be knocked loose again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aristocrat Posted October 13, 2015 Share Posted October 13, 2015 Any chance you have a link? This is new information for me. Especially if you get one right away after you just had one. It makes the second one devastating...if he were to get one this weekend he'd more than likely be done for the season. Just google Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just google No no, I knew that having prior concussions makes you more susceptible to future concussion. I simply didn't know he had a history of concussions in college, and I hadn't heard that his most recent was "worse than originally thought". Nihilairan posted that he had just read both of those things, so I was hoping he might post his source. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dollars 2 donuts Posted October 13, 2015 Share Posted October 13, 2015 (edited) Really need a RB back. I assume McCoy is inactive till the after the bye so Special K will need to show up. This is ridiculous, why don't they just start Bryce Brown; he's fairly illusive and has quicks and his expe...ooooooohhhhhhhh, right. OK. ...the funny thing is, personally I really don't need my 3rd RB to be a good special teamer. I need him to be a good RB. I know many here disagree, but I just thought it was a stupid move to let him go. So what if he had problems and was a little thickheaded...he's the third back, with some skills. Correction, the fourth back, but he'd be the starter now in front of Boobie. Edited October 13, 2015 by dollars 2 donuts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John from Riverside Posted October 13, 2015 Share Posted October 13, 2015 Sounds like there is a good chance that we go into this game with Boom and Boobie I really dont hate Herron..........they need to use him more then they did last week if they want him to be effective. The fact that they don't plan on adding a RB with Cierre Wood going on IR is a good sign that he could play. Guess we'll see. I just hope they dont rush him back out of need......another concussion would be BAD.....at a position where hits to the head are common. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nihilairan posted that he had just read both of those things, so I was hoping he might post his source. he had one concussion at FSU and missed one game. I was wondering where he saw that it was "worse than originally thought." Whaley indicated the opposite, they received no news to the negative.
