DAT placed on injured reserve

Wow.... Gotta wonder if he's considering retirement honestly. If this truly stems from concussion, he must have gotten completely effed up. Best wishes. |

He has every right to quit the game, but he better give alot of his signing bonus back if he does.

This DAT thing makes me uneasy.
With Hammond back there, I can just feel Kyle Williams Part Deux happening to Alex again. |

They would have found another returner by now if it wasn't.

![]() What? You're going to make a guy give back $100k or whatever for retiring due to a severe concussion? The Chiefs will save more than $600k against the cap by making him a Post June 1st designation. I swear, you grow dumber with each post. |

As a matter of fact, his numbers would be elite if he were allowed to return a full season. He's still a young guy with plenty of upside. Those are the types of guys I've wanted for the Chiefs going back to Marty's days. Draft, sign, develop. **** the old guys like Avant, who hasn't done shit this season, as I projected, other than to take away snaps from guys like Conley. |

Of course they will save money because they wonr have to pay DAT anymore, but now they unexpectedly do not have a returner and a player of his skillset. So, absolutely he should be required to give back a prorated part of his signing bonus, however large or small that was.

That's not how you treat NFL players, especially those that experience concussion symptoms for four weeks or more. Do you live under a rock? |

Hammond looks like he is ready to implode. He looks scared and unsure of himself. Maybe he gets over it or maybe he fumbles and ****s us over. Personally i would rather have a viable option on the roster because Hammond scares the crap out of me.

We need someone now, before the playoffs.
We don't want Hammond to implode in the PO and we're sitting there with no option other than Maclin.

I haven't been following this thread. Is this official? Have the personal reasons for being placed on IR been explained? Is he retiring because of them? Or is there still no definitive explanation?

Can't have it both ways. If contracts aren't guaranteed, then you can't go trying to reclaim signing bonuses. Do that and the next CBA will demand guaranteed contracts.

Coaches sometimes make personnel decisions based on experience, trust, and loyalty, and many times those decisions are wrong. I don't know what Fred Williams might ever do in his career, but I have a difficult time believing that he couldn't match 13 catches for 104 yards.
