I did not suffer the effects of the concussions, except when I suffered the effects of the concussions. This is essentially what Joe Burrow confessed in the Colin Cowherd Podcast.
Asked about head injuries, the Bengals quarterback made a funny observation.
“Sometimes I don’t remember the second half, or I don’t remember the whole game. Or I know I was a bit dizzy after a while. But nothing long term. »
Not remembering parts of matches or entire matches, however, seems to be the very definition of a long-term problem.
But like Tom Brady, Burrow seems to consider concussions part of the game, like any other injury. The argument is also almost identical, which shows that Brady’s state of mind is not reserved for the old school, but that it is above all hammered at all players.
“There will be head injuries. There will be cruciate ligament tears. He will have broken arms. It’s our sport. This is the life we lead. And we get paid very well for it. When we go to play, we know what we are getting into. »
On the show, Burrow explained that he suffered at least one concussion in his career.
