from Schefter at ESPN

quote:

The Carolina Panthers do not believe that Luke Kuechly suffered another concussion even though the star linebacker remains in the concussion protocol, league sources told ESPN.

The Panthers announced Sunday that Kuechly remains in the protocol and needs to go through a series of steps before being cleared to play. The concussion protocol requires a player to pass five levels of tests before he is cleared.

But all tests conducted on Kuechly since Thursday night's loss to the Philadelphia Eagles have not revealed another concussion, sources said.

Had me pretty worried. We almost lost one of the best LBs to play the game - I don't know if he would have kept playing.

The hit didn't look bad. Looked more shoulder to shoulder.

Glad he didn't because he could be headed towards retirement talk at that rate.

I think this is a combination of team and player wanting to play and I am not sure this is all 100% true. If he does not have a concussion but that could not be quickly determined Thursday night then something else may already be wrong with his brain.

Oh it's only a matter of time before he's done for good.

I like Kuechly and think he’s a total badass. But a pro LB will get another. His days are numbered unfortunately.
