There goes the franchise. Who knows if his career is over or if he'll just be a shadow of his former self.

What a shame.

QBs so often fit the definition of a " defenseless player " by the nature of their position.

Can anything be done to protect them?

There was an article on Yahoo! Sports this morning blaming it on Bengals poor management

His career would have ended 20+ years ago.

He'll be back. It will take awhile, and they should take care not to rush this, but he will be back.

Not so sure, if the early report was correct about nerve damage, then maybe 50/50

The same injury that Jaylon Smith suffered. His career would have ended if the nerves didn't recover the way they did.
