Guy is going to be a vegetable in a few years with all the concussions.

Best linebacker in the league but his brain is going to be in bad shape if he keeps it up.

His brain is already on track for some good ole CTE. Why stop now?

It's not good. And he's only 26.

He's the Dan Morgan of concussions.

Here is the video of the play he got hurt on. It was an excellent block on a run play.

Sucks that we might be seeing the end of two top 5 defensive players in the league. Watt and Luke.

Just goes to show you how fricking strong those guys are. Idk how the trainers/replay guys caught that he may be concussed

Seeing him lose control and weep without control last year seemed like a major warning sign that his brain has taken serious damage.

It sucks to be driven out of a sport you are amazing at, but it has happened to players before and he's better off getting out before he loses too much of himself.

He should. Football is fun, but it ain't worth your mind.

Patrick Willis is a great example of a dominant player who realized there was more to life than football. Keuchly should contemplate life after wrecking his brain for millions.

I really hope so. It’s time to step away.

That really wasn't even that bad of a lick. He's definitely got enough previous damage that he's very prone to them now.

And that's just the ones that are public knowledge. He's likely had more in practice or played through one or two.

Possibly the smartest decision in NFL history and so many, myself included, questioned it when it happened.
