TheBlueIndian Posted November 23, 2019 Share Posted November 23, 2019 Reed should retire but Vernon could still play for another 2 or 3 years. Good TE routinely play late into their 30s. Dude is still a physical freak and can be productive in offensive schemes that dont require him to do alot of blocking. Link to post Share on other sites
UK SKINS FAN 74 Posted November 23, 2019 Share Posted November 23, 2019 I wish them both good health, but my God what a waste of cash and resource for the year. So predictable. Seems a long time since Davis was hurdling down the sideline. Link to post Share on other sites

ntotoro Posted February 17 Share Posted February 17 Reed needs to be gone for his own health and safety at this point. I'm hoping that's all legalese for them working on some sort of retirement settlement. 4 Link to post Share on other sites

Burgold Posted February 17 Share Posted February 17 What sucks even worse for Jordan was that he was taken out with a dirty hit during a meaningless preseason game. It was unnecessary and ugly. I can't remember who did it, but I hope he was heavily fined and suspended. Yeah, if a year later he is still in concussion protocol, he better hang up his cleats. Link to post Share on other sites

Thanks for that, NFL....... **** you Neal.... he tore his Achilles in September though and missed the rest of the season. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

It looks that way from the team standpoint. Just not official yet. Link to post Share on other sites

Makes me almost wish he has one of those achilles injuries that are impossible to recover from. It would be fair in a way. Injuries happen, but that was dirty and unnecessary.

I do blame Neal for the dirty hit, but really, it was just a matter of time for Reed. If it wasn't Neal, it would have been someone else. 6 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Llevron Posted February 17 Share Posted February 17 Having symptoms a half a year later has to be kinda scary for the dude. I feel bad for him but this is what he chose to do to put his family ahead of the game financially so you gotta respect the choice I guess. But damn man he’s not gonna live to 40 at this rate and that has to scare the **** out of him. 3 Link to post Share on other sites

I watched my son go through one concussion and that was scary. 7 seems insane let alone him still not recovered from one half a year ago. IMO he'd be crazy not to retire. 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites

evmiii Posted February 17 Share Posted February 17 Jordan Reed will never play football again; only thing left to determine is the injury settlement. Sure wish he could have stayed healthy because he had a bunch of talent and could have helped the skins. Unfortunately the overall team struggles wasted the few good years that he did have. I hope he can get healthy enough to live a good life away from football. Link to post Share on other sites

joeken24 Posted February 17 Share Posted February 17 (edited) IMO, Jordan Reed was a HOF talent. I wish him the best, but he definitely could have been the GOAT (if not, one of the greats) at the TE position. No other TE I know of had his all around ability from a receiver standpoint.

Those guys stayed fairly healthy throughout their careers and they also had solid QB play. IMO Reed had much more talent than all three of those guys. Link to post Share on other sites
