that excrement was so stupid. he was visibly concussed. he couldnt even get up to walk back after the hit
adams is already at baseline a very dramatic, emotional person. he used to talk again and again about how he was depressed and would sit in the dark in his room due to our losing nature his first couple of years in the league. as a fanbase we were exposed to his often unnecessary emotional antics over and over. you don't have to be a doctor to imagine what harmful sequelae adding CTE on top of all of that would cause for his health and for his family.
adams may not yet realize it because he's a bum but that unaffiliated neurotrauma consultant was making a decision for the betterment of his life. that's the whole point of having impartial physicians out there.
