Kuechly didn't have a concussion to begin with.

 Prefacing it with the fact that he is the team's PR guy would make it immediately legit. There's a glut of Twitter sources out there and they just don't seem legit without some sort of credentials. Now I Know.

But then I couldn't use the LMGTY site and it's less fun.

Drum is the one who would know. However, I'm a little skeptical for my own reasons. Regardless, I respect Drum and his word so I take that 100% of the time over ESPN's.

If you read both tweets fully they don't necessarily conflict.

Schefter really only says the Panthers don't believe he suffered a concussion.  The problem with his report is claiming he has cleared protocol.  Those are two different things. Someone wanted the positive outlook info out there.

Panthers can't openly speculate on his status while he's in the protocol so Drummond is clarifying that.

they are going to wait a couple of days to be absolutely certain but reading between the lines, I'd expect him to be cleared midweek.

I'm not taking this to mean he has a concussion. Like above I think Shefter just jumped the gun on declaring he's out of the protocol.

Edit: But the above comment about the team not speculating makes sense too.

Could just mean that Luke has not been cleared by the doctor, the last step in clearing him. Usually happens the friday or saturday before the game. 

Would this keep him out of practice?  Or is there a step that includes practice such that it can be used as part of the evaluation?

Luke doesn't need to be at practice more than Thursday and Friday...or really just Friday. I would imagine they'll slow play this as much as possible to be sure.

Actually, Person may be right. I read the protocol, well, more like scanned it, after this started, and IIRC, you flunk on sideline, you go to the lockers and get more tests. Fail baseline or show obvious symptoms there, you're in the protocol. Once in, there's no easy out. Other than same day return prohibition, stages aren't time limited, but you have to go through all of them.

      Best Offensive Line in Years

      My issue too is form Icky to Hunt you would have had young studs under contract control for the next 3 years, unreal if you have that on a NFL team.

      DJ Wonnum effect

      By Basbear · Posted

      I maybe huffin the hopuim too much for the defense during 2 games winning.   If DJ played like that each game(??), DBrown, Turlte, ARob(who's been like Dbrown), clowny   That's a solid front 5, or is it too much homer huffin??   Then Jewell and Shaq   Again solid, not trash or elite.   Horn(heathly) Mike Jackson. Dane Jackson, Woods, and Fuller   I swear the "solid" enough feels are here again   Of course Id love to drop a elite edge and have DJ come off the bench or another stud CB, but I swear if that group was 100% healthy I feel they'd be around 18th best. (yes still need a true NT).  Please correct me.

      You are probably right, but as long as he goes to Dallas, and not here, it will be fun to watch.  Or better yet, New Orleans.
