If he is still suffering symptoms or failing tests from a concussion he suffered 9 months ago maybe he shouldn’t be allowed to return, ever. For his own good.

Best was saying he was ready to go several months ago, but the doctors are still saying no.

The Lions had a guy named Mike Furrey who had a steller year under the Mike Martz scheme. Furrey was a similar case where he had a severe concussion, wanted to come back, but had a hard time getting cleared.

It would be interesting to learn about all of the factors that go into the decision to clear a player like Best/Furrey.

Not a complete back, but young enough he should be signed by someone.

Still, I’m no neurologist, but if I were in his shoes and it is taking this long to recover from a concussion, I’d seriously think about retiring.

The brain isn’t something to mess with.

He seems like a good guy who is stuck on a team full of losers.
