shrader Posted October 20, 2009 Share Posted October 20, 2009 so if true wonder what game he took the hit for the first concussion? Maybe it was against Tampa cuz since than he looks scared and unsure of himself Depending on how they're counting, 2nd in 3 weeks would go back to either Miami or New Orleans.

Conch Posted October 20, 2009 Share Posted October 20, 2009 there was report that talked about his second concussion of his career and that he had one TD and 5 INts in three games. The update that you received was a discombobulation of that report. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coach Tuesday Posted October 20, 2009 Share Posted October 20, 2009 I read somewhere else that TE got a concussion on Oct. 4 as well (in Miami). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RayFinkle Posted October 20, 2009 Share Posted October 20, 2009 Maybe they meant it is his 2nd concussion and he could be out 3 weeks. I don't know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
K-9 Posted October 20, 2009 Share Posted October 20, 2009 I have to imagine that is a typo. Up until the Jets game, Trent has not missed a snap all year. If he somehow received a concussion against either the Browns or Dolphins and played through it, that is insanely stupid. Not even our staff could be that negligent. No way. Right? GO BILLS!!!

Heels20X6 Posted October 20, 2009 Share Posted October 20, 2009 I'm watching the play where he went down and I'm still trying to figure out how he got a concussion there.... Was it roughing the passer? Absolutely. But I can see a possible leg injury, lower body injury or even a neck sprain considering the way his head was twisted...but concussion...I can't see it.

bizell Posted October 20, 2009 Share Posted October 20, 2009 i think maybe when he ran forward, he kind of lowered his head and two jets collided basically into his face. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I find it hard to believe there was no penalty on the play. I thought they were protecting the QB's in this league. But watching the replay I dont see how he got a concussion either...maybe he got a knee or leg to the head....only way it could happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zona Posted October 20, 2009 Share Posted October 20, 2009 these reports are wrong. It stems from this article, saying trent suffered a concussion on Oct 5th against AZ. We all know that was LAST year. this is only his second Concussion. http://www.nfl.com/news/story?id=09000d5d8...mp;confirm=true Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But watching the replay I dont see how he got a concussion either...maybe he got a knee or leg to the head....only way it could happen. The first time it happened, I thought "Neck injury" since they were trying to twist his head off like he was a cold beer on a hot day. If the concussion happened when he hit the ground or when the players collided with his mask, he either needs a new mask or he's far too susceptible to concussions.

Big Hurt Posted October 20, 2009 Share Posted October 20, 2009 I thought he would injure his knee and was shocked that it was a concussion. Maybe they need more cameras. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was the same at Stanford.....injury prone. That was the main reason teams let him slide to the 3rd round. Injuries. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The back of his head hit the ground while being simultaneously hit from the front. While I wish Trent a speedy recovery, I'm excited to see Fitzpatrick work these WR's we have and 2 stud RB's.

MattM Posted October 20, 2009 Share Posted October 20, 2009 as this is an ESPN text with an (AP) reference to it, i must note that the AP is not reporting that. jw John, I thought I noticed in the AP story last night posted by ESPN that they referenced his first concussion as being something like "against Arizona on Oct. 5" (ie., they didn't mention that it was last year), which struck me as odd at the time. I bet that's the culprit here. I suspect that they misedited your story, which I strongly suspect (knowing you) had the right year date on it originally. Just a hunch....
