Sounds like his career is in serious doubt.

We were just talking about this, do you think he'll play again this year?

The Fins should have kept Dante....I'm heard rumblings about Jake Plummer still drawing interest.

He absolutely should stop playing. He's risking his life basically, and for a team going nowhere.

Not worth it, you've had a good career. Now live a long life.

He should hang it up.

He's had a great career and I doubt he'll be in a rush to come back to an 0-5 team.

If he is not showing any after effects within the next week or two then he should keep playing. The media over plays all this concussion stuff.

Are the doctors overplaying it too?

He had a grade 3 concussion, the worst one you can have.

Couple that with his past concussions and we're talking about a pretty serious situation.

I think the doctors are be way to cautious. It depends on the individual and how he responds. So far it looks like he is fine.

LOL have you talked with Green or reviewed his medicals?

Of course the doctors are cautious, we're talking about a head injury a year removed from another very serious one.

yeah, we're not talking a torn ACL or something. this is a head injury of the worse kind at that.

Time for him to start collecting the interest earned on his investment.

Re: Green suffered a severe concussion
 
Time for him to call it a career. It's been good, and plenty of cash in his pocket.
It's not like he would be risking his health for some kind of good cause? The Fin's are done this year.........and for some time to come. No sense coming back next year in S. Fl.

He outta hangem up while he still has at least half a brain. That SUCKS for trent.

I think it's time for Trent Green to hang it up. I wouldn't have even cared if the concussion was that serious or not. When you, as a football player who is 37 years old, have been carted off of the field in consecutive seasons, you should consider hanging it up. I for one, hope he does, that's a scary sight and I hope I never have to see it again.

I can't believe that guys was taunting him when he got carted off and basically defended his actions.

Classless most def but it was a very dangerous play and he was arguably very upset at someone going down on his knees. Trent took a really cheap low blow and if you watch the video that DT nearly landed his head.
