    NFL: We think Player is faking being concussed. Fine incoming.

    Tretter: No he’s just kinda… like that.

    (Appeal is won).

    Tretter: Told ya.

      Thad Castle with concussion: Let me play coach. It’s not like I can get any dumber. 🥺

      Moran: Coach, he has got a point.

      Coach: 🤦‍♂️

      Reminds me of the time a teammate knocked his head playing basketball. Trainer came out and asked him to start saying the alphabet backwards.

      “… I can’t do that normally.”

      “Ok he’s good.”

    Ahhh. I’m hurt bad I’m seeing stars I’m seeing stars counting stars.

    Trainer: Sir, someone lightly stepped on your foot.

    The team’s medical staff told him to go down on the field? What on earth? Am I reading that right?

    Maybe the fine was rescinded because he just did what the team’s medical staff told him to do?

    The only time I could see a fine for faking an injury being justified/holding up on appeal is when players sit down on the field and pretend to be hurt to give their coach extra time to throw a challenge flag, and then come right back into the game.

    This guy must have learned how to fail the concussion protocol if its even true. Also makes me think this might have been a fringe player to even acuse him of doing this to the point of even fining him.

    Just seems super dangerous to try and guess if someone is faking a concussion or not.

    The amazing thing in this thread is literally no one read the article and are just throwing names out that literally cannot be the individual described in the article.

    100% Minkah Fitzpatrick after he took out chubbs knee. He knew he fucked up and tried to play it off like he hurt his head then came right back in the game a couple plays later. Watch the replay.

    Probably Jimmy G against the Broncos when he grabbed his head after sliding and a bronco flew over him and barely made contact
