You risk the possibility of a career ending injury every time you step onto that field. Even when you're 100% healthy.
Lotsa dum in this thread
Yeah, but you still need to weigh the risk vs benefit and take a graded approach. The benefit of having AR out there against the Bears is now crucial. Without him, despite how poorly the Bears played last night, the Packers will lose. Flynn can't throw the ball more than 20 yds and is way too skittish and thus the deep threat is practically eliminated. I think the Packers should raise the stakes a bit and play AR and to make a demand to AR to not take any hits he can avoid even at the cost of extending a play or drive.
