It's interesting to look at the video of Collie's concussions.

 

Quote:Looking it up, that seems to be right, I put it down to the severity.

 

Shorts' concussions were nothing like this.

It's interesting to look at the video of his concussions.  In the first, he might have had his "bell rung" on the initial helmet-to-helmet hit, then the back of his head hit the turf pretty hard.  There really is no way to say that it happened from the helmet-to-helmet hit or the hit when his head hit the turf.

 

In the second video, one of the lead comments from the announcers was that he was "just back from a concussion", and in that scenario, once again his head hit the turf pretty hard.  It is possible that perhaps he was on the field just a bit early, though there is no evidence of that.

 

Either way, I don't see Shorts looking for the "big payday" out of this next contract, and I would hardly say that "he's one concussion away" from his career being over.
