Earl Bennett is still being evaluated for a possible concussion.

 

I fear Earl's days with the team are numbered. Too bad.

Earl might be in for a short career if he keeps this up, unfortunately. He never stays healthy.

Yea, agreed. It's really odd to sustain a concussion in training camp. This dude just may be naturally fragile or simply not have the natural instincts to fall or take a hit properly.

At this point Earl hasn't returned to practice so this is getting serious and he won't play Fri night.

They have officially ruled him out and indicated it was a concussion. My guess is he misses at least a week, if not two, but he should still play in a couple preseason games and be ready for the opener.

From a chemistry standpoint I don't worry too much about Earl being out a couple weeks. I do worry that he ends up being forced to retire early though. One more concussion and that may be the end.

 

I do love the depth at WR though. Between DA, Anderson, and Wilson I think Earl can be replaced easier than Hayden.

Excited to see what Joe Anderson is made of now that he will be replacing Earl Bennett on the depth chart, at least for the pre-season opener.

This is exactly why I wanted us to draft a WR in the 1st 4 rounds. Knowing that sooner or later earl would go down. It sucks but its facts. However now I'm excited to see what Anderson can do

Bennett is still sitting out practice with concussion symptoms. This is not a good sign at all.
