Eben Britton piece on pain and management in the NFL.

#8

Quote:Which is basically the context of the article. Players playing through pain are more than likely using drugs/pills to help deal with the pain. Not saying this is Hurns, but not saying it's not, because like Scarecrow says, how could you possibly know? 

 

This isn't the first time I've heard stories like this either. 
 

While the article does highlight that issue Eben Britton's situation was different. He thought it was OK to take two drugs for the same mental disorder, then realized later they were helping him with pain. That is not the same as simply having a painkiller addiction like Brett Favre did with Vicodin. As someone who has tried several psychotherapy drugs, I probably was reading the article differently. Allen Hurns could get addicted, but it is very unlikely that would be an ADHD drug.
