Latest report is, the clot is in his lungs, and he is receiving “aggressive treatment”.

Scary.

@ jackblackshairyback,

That is REALLY dangerous, and really unfortunate. Bad move for the training staff. I don’t care how bad you need someone, to force them to play or practice after that is extremely unsat. It isn’t about being a man, but about keeping that man safe from further damage. Something is really wrong with the Cleveland Browns training staff if this is true. Maybe the coaching staff as well.

This should end up costing Shurmur his job. Pinkston was apparently coughing up blood in practice and they told him to keep going.

This is going to be an ungly situation for the Browns, not on the field. It seems Pinkston was showing symptoms as far back as Sunday, but no one did anything. From what I hear(take it for what it’s worth to you), the coaching staff made him keep practicing after spitting up blood. Only after practice did he get to a hospital. VERY dangerous situation.
