Megatron’s concussion test was:

- Hey Calvin, how many fingers can you see???
- I’m BATMAN!!!
- Ok. You’re good to go.

Chad Greenway and Harrison Smith cant wait to see Calvin again!

You must be joking right? The Lions are playing better. Calvin might just go off. Lions want revenge after the first game. You wont have 2 special teams TD returns to save you this time.

I doubt that Calvin would say he had a concussion and nerve damage unless one of the team doctors told him that’s what he had.

Considering teams hide injuries all the time, I dont think you automatically assume a player is clueless. He probably was in this instance but several teams have already been fined for hiding injuries.

I wouldn’t put Best back out there. The guy is a ticking timebomb right now.

Isnt CJ saying he had a concussion close enough to saying he was evaluated for a concussion? Also, a stinger is essentially nerve damage; it’s just not an ongoing injury. It hurts for a few days…

Can you blame the Lions for this with Jahvid Best being the only guy in the league held to the NFL’s new stricter concussion standards?

Dude, Jahvid Best will be a vegetable if they let him back out there. Please don’t use him as your soapbox like the league is trying to screw the Lions.
The young man is one more hit away from being the next guy to kill himself.

Contradicting oneself seems like a sign of nerve damage.

NFL players never miss-speak. This must be a conspiracy. So dumb.

I don’t get it. There is no need to clarify anything about what CJ said. It never should have been assumed that his statements were accurate in the first place because the Lions and medical staff had already taken an official position on his injury status, and CJ is not a certified doctor so there was never any reason to assume that his medical analysis was accurate in the first place.

He was just babbling on about something he was not qualified to diagnose and that opinion never meant anything at any time.
