David Newton's finest moment

Panthers DE Brian Burns (concussion) is progressing through the protocol. He wore a green jersey and helmet on Thursday. He was in a red jersey on Wednesday and did not participate in practice. CB Eli Manning (hamstring) also is in a green jersey. No sign of DE Yetur Gross-Matos

When we sign Eli Manning? He would be a shitty corner

[TrevorLaurenceTime22]

Lol. But seriously we need Burns badly Sunday.... YGM out.

This guy helped convince me that ESPN was terrible and easy to avoid. I am guessing he still has a job because he is cheap, any other possibility is mind boggling to consider.

Is it a good sign that he was in green jersey and helmrt today

[stbugs]

Lol. Did he mean Ricky Manning instead of Eli Apple? I mean he’s been gone for 15 years and I cannot for the life of me get Eli Apple and Ricky Manning to be a slip up and Eli Apple really doesn’t remind me of Eli Manning.

Damn, that couldn’t have been butchered any worse and there’s no logical mistake. Gotta wonder what goes on on his brain. He’s so random you almost wonder.

No. Concussion is an automatic miss two games normally.

I’m convinced Newton has some cheap dude in the Philippines ghost write his stuff.

Who you taking - Eli Manning or Bene Benwikere post leg break?

I'm thinking Eli Apple and Ricky Manning got him confused

I think it’s a reason to be optimistic. Based on the above, I’d say he’s likely at the step right before being cleared (position Specific training minus contact activities) given he’s out there with a helmet. There are quite a few steps before: stretching only, then medically supervised light aerobic, then cardio then strength training. Then they can do position specific minus contact.

The last step is the team clearing the player to return and the team’s neurotrauma expert concurring. Based on the speed of progression, seems possible they put him through the protocol out of an abundance of caution. I’d bet tomorrow we’ll have our answer.

Perhaps Newton should be in the concussion protocol too.
