A franchise quarterback has got to be protected and it certainly appeared after Colt McCoy suffered a vicious helmet to helmet hit from James Harrison recently that the young quarterback was not. The Browns’ medical and training staff has a lot of questions to answer.
His father was clearly not pleased and made that known with his recent statements, “He never should’ve gone back in the game. You could tell by the rigidity of his body as he was laying there. He was nauseated and he didn’t know who he was. From what I could see, they didn’t test him for a concussion on the sidelines. If he took another blow to the head, we could’ve been talking about his career here. And I certainly didn’t think he’d be out only a play. It would’ve taken my high school trainer longer than that to determine if he was okay after a hit like that.”
It sure seems like he wants his son to leave the team and Colt now has to be wondering can he ever trust the medical and training staff again, after they did so little to protect him in the team’s loss to the Steelers, 14-3. Maybe, it is time to head back to Texas to become the backup for Tony Romo or Matt Schaub next season.
