An interesting question....

My first instinct is "no" because I want the best players on the field in the Super Bowl.

It also makes my blood boil that we had multiple Chiefs pulled from the playoff game against Indy for symptoms that seemed much less severe.

In either event, there seems to be a pretty inconsistent protocol applied here. The NFL and NFLPA really need to re-evaluate this whole concussion protocol. For consistency sake, Edelman should have been booted but given how effective he still played, it's a good thing he wasn't.
